Beaverdam Nymphing

This report is now about a week old but i got to do some euro nymphing on beaverdam last week. I didnt get started until about 1:30 in the afternoon but I still found plenty of active fish. The water was 66F and perfectly stained from some rain the day before. I ended up landing 7 and losing a few more in about 90 minutes, mostly on a basic size 14 jig nymph I tie with some purple ice dub. The biggest brown was around 14” and most others were 10-12”. Lots of fun and unbeatable scenery!

    Stoney Creek-Blue Springs Rd bridge

    Discussion 
    Got to fish Stoney Creek last Saturday from 8:30-10am. Probably the best 1 1/2 hrs of fishing I've ever had. Caught 11 in the range of 5-10", all bow's and 1 brownie (being the biggest). Using a dry-dropper setup with a Yellow Sally stimulator and nymph.

    Fished Stoney creek for about 1 1/2 hours yesterday afternoon. Creek is still running big, but is clear. Caught one small Rainbow on a San Juan worm. Pretty cool temps, but nice to see the sun.

    Lower Watauga Float

    Discussion 
    Fishing was rather slow over all for our float from Blevins to Twin Bridges. Tried an array of patterns and only landed a few fish on #20 midges in purple and black. No luck on streamers. My buddy landed two rainbows on a Black/gold Rapala 90 stick minnow. We didn't boat enough fish to say decisively what was working but midges are always a good best on our tailwaters and that proved true again.
