Title
Last shot on Wilson before DH ends
Fishing Report
Fished Wilson Creek on Memorial Day trying to get one last day in before delayed harvest end. There was a steady light rain until mid afternoon. The water clouded up around Noon. From starting time around 10 AM until 5:00 or so I landed 13 fish including a couple 16" fish and a 20"er. They were all Rainbows.
A little after 5:00 the rain had quit for an hour or two, the water cleared and I waded around a bend in the river just below the old mill site to where there is a straight stretch of fairly flat shallow water that steps up several times before coming to a fairly deep hole. It was like someone flipped a switch. For the next hour or so until I quit for the day at 7:00PM the stream came alive with one Brookie after another. In the last hour or so I landed 17 Brookies including a nice 18"er.
