I headed out fishing twice this week on the SBR. Monday I took a trip to Ken Lockwood Gorge and the river looked great! There were great looking pockets and yet, I did not see one fish. Then I checked out the Clarement Section of the SBR on Wednesday and the water looked even nicer. However, every perfect looking hole contained not a single visible fish. The same day I went to check out the Black River and looked in about 10 holes...nothing. Where are these fish? Is the population down significantly this week?
Give us a try!
Welcome back to the new NEFF. Take a break from Twitter and Facebook. You don't go to Dicks for your fly fishing gear, you go to your local fly fishing store. Enjoy!
Where Are The Fish?

Fishizzle, I use worms but I'm looking to upgrade!
Try a longer leader and be stealthier now, with low clear water and no leaves on the trees. There are lots of brown trout in the gorge these days and they spook easy in these conditions. I rarely see them in the fall. They are definitely harder to catch this time of year there. But they are there. If you get some rain, that's a good time to go when the water comes up a little and gets a little color.
