I was able to get out fly fishing today with my good friend, Joe, on Whychus Creek, the small creek in the canyon below my house.\u00a0 Whychus creek is one of my favorite spots here in Central Oregon…beautiful water and no other anglers around.\u00a0 I took out my 6′\u00a0 8″\u00a0 3 wt. Fast Action Series Bamboo Rod and Joe took out his 7′\u00a0 0″\u00a0 4 wt bamboo rod he built with me in my workshop.\u00a0 After a bug sampling that showed a lot of stonefly nymphs, I started with a #10 black rubber legged black stonefly nymph.\u00a0 Joe started with a #16 Tan X-Caddis pattern.\u00a0 We both were successful and caught several nice rainbows.\u00a0 After an hour, I wanted some dry fly action so I changed over to a #12 Yellow Stimulator pattern…Joe stayed with his X-Caddis.\u00a0 For the next 2 hours, we both raised a lot of feisty native rainbows, and by the end of the day, we each caught about 15 fish.\u00a0 What a fun day with our bamboo rods on one of our small creeks here.<\/p>\n
