Float Tube Spring Creek
Posted by fliesandfinswest on Monday, February 06 @ 17:34:33 PST
During a recent outing to a sweet Sun Valley spring creek we decided to launch the float tubes for a trico hatch. The trout were super selective and once they did take your fly and you set the hook succesfully the complexities had just begun. The number one problem was the bottom of this creek was all grass, not to mention size 24 flies and 7x tippet. It was very hard to get the fish's head up from the sitting position in the float tube. Although it is a cool perspective to be at near eye level with huge gulping browns and bows, this lead to many hooked trout never seeing the net. Chalk it up to a lesson learned.
