A cool rainy day on the river. But a stout raincoat, determination and my first day fishing 2016 kept me focused. Caught six lovely trout on the day: 5 on nymphs and one on a dry. I arrived early afternoon and fished until 5:30. I noted little hatch activity. But the few hatching insects suggested Large Dark Olives.
The water was relatively clear, despite the rain. Water temperature was 10C/50F. Air temperature around 8 to 10C.
The one dry fly fish came on a Para Adams (#14).
The largest trout took my nymph aggressively. Excellent short contest before he came to the net and was soon released. A pretty strong 17 inch (?) fish, with deep belly and vibrant colours.
My duo nymph rig consisted of a Czech style point fly and a Prince nymph on the dropper. Only after the day finished, did I realized that the wonderfully creative Pop singer Prince died that same day. So I suppose my fly choice was an unsuspecting homage to him. Wonderful waters and I look forward to returning again from Canada.

No rising fish seen and very little fly life. Fished for 2-3 hours with weighted nymph but no success. Wish the weather would warm up!
