SANDY RIVER REPORT

My new favorite rod



Love how the scales look on a chrome fish

Beautiful 34" Wild Hen
This week started out slow but ended very well. This time of year it is a mixed bag of fish, there some big bright fish still coming in and fish heading back out. Still a great time of year to flyfish the Sandy.

WIND STORM ON SUNDAY

Sunday was a good and bad, fishing was good we landed a nice wild hen and had several other opportunities.
On the way back to Sandy after a great day on the river we ran straight into a mini tornado, with trees and limbs breaking all around us. As I was driving through this mess a limb landed just in front of us, with no way to dodge the limb. We drove through not knowing it had speared my radiator until we got back to town. So not a great way to end the day

STEELHEAD FOG


Was Out guiding on Wed on the Sandy river we found a few fish. The fog hung around all day with the warm air temps. It made the river look perfect all day.
The next day the river went out with all the rain.

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION

Spent a few days with the guys from Trout Unlimited TV on the Sandy trying to get a steelhead on the
swing. It took two days of shooting but we finally got one on film from start to finish.
Thanks to the guys at Barrett Productions for making it a fun time.
