Early September Fishing Report

Posted by Ted Kraimer - September 1, 2021

The water has come up and down again after heavy rains over the weekend leaving the water stained which should clear up by the weekend. The hot weather has thankfully left us with nice, cool, evenings and sunny afternoons in the forecast.

The Tricos have come and gone on the trout rivers and the terrestrials are hit and miss, so is the fishing. After a long season the trout are warry. Experience tells me once the water temps drop, the days get a little shorter and the brook trout get that pre-spawning tingle in their loins, fishing improves for both brookies and browns. Cloudy/overcast days continue to be preferred over the bright days.

Terrestrials and twitch flies are a great approach but keep some smaller Isonychia and BWO dries in your box and a few of your favorite wet flies. Have any flying ants in your box? You should because if they show up like they often do in Sept, so do the fish. Once Labor day is behind us, most folks forget about trout fishing making the local rivers good place to spend a few hours.

The cooler weather will help improve the lake fishing for those looking to get some more gill and bass fishing in as they move from deep back into the shallows again.

Good luck.

Ted
