    June Fishing

    Friday, June 27, 2008, 07:19 PM EST [General]

    June has been a interesting and productive month for me with the flyrod.

    I've caught my first Letort Springs Run wild brown trout during the sulphur hatch at the beginning of the month.

    I fished the Codorus Creek in downtown York City, catching a walleye on a popper.

    And today Bugbee and I hit the Codorus Creek and I caught 6 wild browns, all on a scud.

    Check out my photo gallery for picts from the Letort.

    Great Smoky Mountains National Park

    My cousin Rich and I just got back from a week fishing and hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

    We experienced winter and summer in just a few days, fishing the West Prong of Little River in the snow on Monday and Abrams Creek in Cades Cove in 80 degree temps Friday.

    We caught about 100 wild rainbows between the two of us during the week. No browns or brookies were taken. Almost everything was taken on dry flies.

    Check out my gallery for photos from the trip.

    Thanks for the re-building input. I was thinking about sanding, but I will give scraping a try. I hope to spend some "quality time" with it later in January, I will let you know what happens.
