This being the first day of the new year I decided to fish a small stream in pursuit of its wild gems.

The air temps were around 20 but did moderate some as the day moved on.

I did not take a stream temp although you can judge that by the photos.

I fished buggers and streamers and the fish responded well.



Enjoy





Winters beauty streamside,














Some prime holding water for winter trout, they came up from the bottom to slash at the streamers








Beside mine these are the only tracks I saw today
