Creek Side Fly fishin

[JODakota]

So Sunday was the first full day off I have had off in about 3 months literally so I woke up with the thought of going scouting for the upcoming season. So naturally I drove up to what I like to call Jesse's paradise. I get there do some hiking. From where I sat on the mountain I could see the creek calling my name. So instead of scouting, the afternoon turned into a "love affair" with the river. Here's some photos of probably the most relaxing day I have had all summer.

Hey thanks, I was using gold beaded pheasants, stoneflys, and adams. It was definitely a nymph day. Yes it is a magical place. Hands down my favorite river to fish!
