So back to the venue from yesterday, armed with traces this time.
The mill pool … zero bites … no following perch … no pike attacks.
Tried the nymph … absolutely nothing which I found very odd as there had to be at least dace around.
So back into the woods to look for rising fish as the sun came out but again … totally dead.
Figuring there had to be fish in that stream I tried the nymph again and behold after a lot of work one little dace.
Maybe the fish are put-off by the extensive manure spraying of the farmers.
Always hate when the surface of the water begins to foam…
