Fish Report for 10-1-2023

Paulina is beginning to see the big brown trout in post spawn behavior

10-1-2023
The Fly Fishers Place

Paulina is beginning to see the big brown trout in post spawn behavior. Ganging up, leeping for random reasons and hanging out in shallow areas more than out in the deep. The biggest Browns I see usually come in October and often on a Balanced Leech or a Chubby.
We smacked ’em on Beetles and Ants the last few days up there. And still got a lot of fish on Hoppers too, even in the cold rain. Water temps are still around 52 so the fish are active
