Weekend Fishing Reports

Sunday, March 21st, 2010

Dave and I fished today on the Rogue River in Rockford.  I was 0-1 and Dave was 1-2 on Steelhead. All the fish we hooked and landed were darker fish which took either an egg fly or a “Frenchy”.  We also caught a few nice stream trout under thingamabobbers.  The water was in pretty good condition.  Look for more fish to push into the river as we get some warmer temps and precipitation this week.

Hill fished on Saturday and had a good day on egg flies in pocket water around gravel.

This week at the shop I’ve heard positive reports from just about every river.  Some anglers have gotten into double digit fish while others were skunked.  The fishing is just starting to get good and should be prime the next couple weeks.  If you need help rigging or selecting the right flies please contact the shop.

Here are a few pictures from our trip down to Mexico.  I guess the 3rd trips the charm…

Sparrow Nymph – Fly Pattern How To

Saturday, January 30th, 2010

Here is a quick video on how to tie the Sparrow Nymph.  It’s one of my favorite patterns for Steelhead here in Michigan.  I tie them with a natural pheasant rump with olive dubbing or tan.  Also, I use the died pheasant rumps to create some quick fish catching patterns.

FaceBook users have to click view origianal post to see video.

If you have any suggestions on what patterns you’d like demonstrated on our YouTube site please let us know: info@nomadanglers.com
