Hey Gang,
I had the privilege of fishing with some family and OFF friends this weekend on the Nehalem R.
Though the river was busy with campers and short on water, there was still some trout to be had.
Fishing near Cook creek in the upper section, We were able to find a deep slot with lots of action but spooky fish. There was a heavy trico spinner fall happening with tiny bugs caught in the film. Trout of decent size were rising all over but none bit on the size 18 parachute fly. I ran through my fly box, but sadly nothing sparked any interest. I'm confident that a trico could have done the job and I intend to tie a few up for next time.
Fishing was spotty and some were caught but the company couldn't be beat
See you on the water
