I had a few hours to get out on the Fall River yesterday to tempt a few fish.\u00a0 There wasn’t any noticeable surface activity but some caddis and small mayflies were out dotting the water.\u00a0 I tried Czech Nymphing with a small #18 black Psycho Mayfly pattern and a #16 Green Caddis Pupa pattern fished along the grassy banks in the fast water and picked up about a dozen rainbows, browns, and brook trout in the 8″ to 11″ range. I happened to have with me my 7′\u00a0 6″\u00a0 5 wt FreeStone Series bamboo rod, which is not exactly the best rod for Czech Nymphing.\u00a0 Normally I would be fishing with one of my longer rods, typically in the 8′\u00a0 6″\u00a0 to 9″ 0″\u00a0 range.\u00a0 But, since I was working very close to me along the banks, the smaller rod worked fine. Sometimes it’s not about size of the fish…it’s just about getting out on the stream and trying some new techniques.\u00a0 Here are a couple of photos.<\/p>\n
