DATE: Tuesday, 1/4/2005
TIME: 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM
WEATHER: Mid-60s, partly cloudy
WATER CONDITIONS: 0 units
LOCATIONS FISHED: Norfork River, below Ackerman/Handicap Access
HATCH: Significant midge hatch; crane flies were on the water surface and in the air, and possibly some caddis were hatching. Fish were rising to hatches.
ROD USED: Unknown
FLIES USED: #18 olive Norfork River scud dropping a #26 pear beaded black midge, #20 Griffith’s Gnat
OTHER: I fished with Wayne and Harold. I caught two fish—a rainbow and a brook trout—at the Buffalo Horns (near Tony Austin's). The brookie took a #20 Griffith's Gnat; it was only about 8 inches long, but the most beautiful colored fish I have caught in several years. Fishing has been real slow since late November.
