[quote pkred]Looks like a fun trip PAT. I knew I should have played hookey from work and went fishing yesterday. What were the hot colors on your flies? I always drag a worm around the DC, but i think I might try out your fly @ depth next time im there. Great report and pics.[/quote]
[cool][#0000ff]TubeBabe and I both caught most of our fish on the "gold marmalady" (see pic yesterday. We each caught one and had several more hits on the "white rainbow". I also caught one on a chartreuse bubble bug with red hook and red head. No pic.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]As soon as the water cools down, the "Halloween" colors start working very well...black and orange. I catch trout on them in all of the trout ponds...Deer Creek, Jordanelle, Scofield, Huntington, etc. [/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]The way we fish the flies with a DEEP bubble is like slow motion downriggers. We have to work out the combination of length of cast, time to sink, speed of kicking, etc. Then we stop periodically and speed up once in a while to get the fly up and down through the water column. Sometimes it pays to just start a slow retrieve back in...especially to check for algae on the line. It was bad again yesterday (see pic) and the fish would not hit the fly if there was a line of green goo ahead of it on the leader.[/#0000ff]
