Had a nice trip today and landed us a several rainbow and several brown. I have never caught this many brown up there before. We put in @ the top in my friends drift boat and he started fishing with his fly rod with a hairs ear nymph, pheasant tail nymph combo and I went with the old faithful corn. The water was a little stained from the over night flood but was clearing quickly. We fished our way down to Towee Creek takeout and landed 7 browns and 13 rainbow. All fish but one were tiny and it wasn't nothing to brag about. Many of the fish were no more than 6-7" long. I don't know how small the stockers are this year but these were much smaller than I remember.
