Stephens State Park Bust

[Cuz]

Fished Stephens State Park yesterday. (Upper Musky river) What a bust. Very low water. Most of it slow running. I was greeted by four grey herons standing in four inches of water. They are notorius for catching stocked trout. The mosquitoes were so glad I decided to show up. First time I got really eaten up this year. Every cast I caught a bluegill. Not one trout. The park is well taking care of but for me it's my last trip there. There are much better fishable trout waters.

I haven't been there in a few years, but used to do pretty well there with a fly rod and some GR Hares Ears and Wolly Buggers

I haven't been there in a few years, but used to do pretty well there with a fly rod and some GR Hares Ears and Wolly BuggersWith all the weeds growing in the water there it would be "impossible" to drift any nymph through all that nasty looking grass that is growing there. A dry fly may work.

We seriously need rain. The rivers are way too low for mid-May.

It's time for a rain dance. Let the other anglers and walkers laugh while I dance on the river banks wearing a loin cloth and feathers. We'll see who is laughing when the skies open up with torrents of rain this month!
