Although
there are times when we can fish Boxwood or Long Meadow in the winter, the
days are fairly short and the weather can be cold and nasty. We are also
busy with waterfowl hunting until mid-February. We start fishing in March! The days start to lengthen out and the river begins to wake up a bit. The first insect activity that occurs is the Little Winter Stone. This is a small, dark, slate-colored stonefly, usually in sizes 16 and 18. Small, dark nymph patterns are usually the answer. There will be some dry fly activity, with rising fish, on the warmest days in the afternoon. The water is cold, and so are the fish. They won't move very far to take the fly. Sight fishing to an 8 pound Rainbow will keep a fisherman warm! Take advantage of lower Winter Access Fees, and surprise some fish that haven't seen too many flies for a while. |
