Methow River

Fishing today with Garn Christensen on the Methow above the confluence with the Twisp. I caught five cutts, one rainbow, lots of missed strikes. Garn caught lots on the dries.
My first fish were on black stonefly nymph with bead head, nothing on the prince nymph dropper. When the fish started hitting the Thingamabobber I decided to change to dries. Good choice! Had some big fish attack (I missed) the golden stone fly dry that was my dropper, a few to a chernoble (orange) bug that was my lead fly. This photo of a nice cutt I took early in the day on the black stone.

Nice! How far up from the confluence did you fish?
