Rocky Ford and Dry Falls
Made a Friday night and all day Saturday stay at THE Creek. It was a little overcast and windy in the early morning, but became sunny and calm for the better part of the day.
I had a wonderful day with 18 hookups. Four were over 4 lbs. and everything was 16" and up.
I use mohair leeches size 10 - black - on a sink tip line! I even caught fish in the 12" pool right below the footbridge near the hatchery. They usually like it slow on the drift, but once in a while a quick strip does the trick.
I went to Dry Falls on Sunday and fished the shallows all morning. Got 8 on an olive green damsel. They hammered it and were very active. That is a wonderful fishery and if you hit it right, they really get after what you are offering.
I agree with others, that road is bad!!! But, the slow progress getting there is worth it.
