Dry Flies on Cutts! April 5th
#1
*Reminder the name was left out on purpose. No guesses, hints, clues, riddles, etc.

This report is late as the site I use to upload pics was down for a few days......

So I went with Robertsfam to my cutty spot yesterday. Met him at 6:30am as he had to be at work in a few hours. We arrived to a great sunrise but the fish hadn't woke up yet. Luckily I was early as a kid that saw me there the day before was arriving early to snipe my spot. Ha I won. Before Robertsfam left I caught the first cutt of the day. He was kind enough to leave me a few flies to try as my knots kept coming loose and I was loosing my flies rather quickly. The wind was terrible once Robertsfam left but I carried on. I caught 4 cutts by the time I lost all my midges that sit under the water. Then I was left with one choice. Dry flies or go home. Well recently I had seen these bugs flying around so I went to Sportsmans and tried to match it. It worked!!!
Within 2 mins BAM a fish slurped it off the top. I landed 2 in a row in consecutive casts! I have never tried dry flies before. Then I saw a fish hit it and shake while I set the hook. Well the line flew at me with no tension. That happened twice in a row! Then a angler taught me the correct knot and I landed most of the fish that hit. We chatted while he fished in my spot with me. The action was decent in the lulls of the wind gusts. My twin informed me that we were meeting a new member from BFT that was a twin as well at Little Dell by 5pm so I packed up at 4pm and left. I caught 11 cutts yesterday. The largest went 16 inches long. I lost 5 cutts, and missed around 15 bites. Dry flies are a new addiction!!!
