Dunnfield Creek

Caught 2 small browns on an orange bead pheasant tail. The water was low and crystal clear, which did not help me. The trout spooked when they saw my fly line on a false cast or even whrn the nymphs hit the water. I saw a nice fish 50 feet above the water on the trail, and after staring at it for 5 seconds, it saw me and swam off under a rock. I switched to a dry fly too late, as I had to go to work. I do think I had one denial though. There were some sulphers, some small bwos, and a smaller dark blue/grey mayfly, about size 18 that I didn't know what it was. I'll have to hit it again after a rainstorm, and try to fish the water farther up away from more people

Took the day to hike Dunnfield Creek to try and catch some brookies. Was very successful, as I caught 7. The river was raging, and I would say 50% of the hiking trail was underwater, but in the end it was a good day of fishing. There were only a handful of fishable pools (the other ones were too turbulent), and there were multiple fish in each pool. I had low expectations at the start because of how much water was in the system, but was happily surprised. I can only imagine how the fishing would have been with normal flows
