9/21/2010 fishing talk/report

Hello My Friends and Fellow Fishers, The tricky trout are starting to move out into the deep,that is the ones who want to bite anyway. Their is a reason for this but in short its the steady flows. So we have been having fun with it and using all different tactics in our creel to catch them awesome critters. We might start the day wading the riffles, then strip some buggers and end with fishing a size 20 midge in one of the many eddies stacked with fat bows. If one is quite for a second you can hear them smacking on those midges. HUNDREDS OF THOSE WHITE MOUTHS. The weekends have been a little busy,but still plenty of room to fish.The rest of the week is just right and the weather has been great, cool in the morning,warm in the afternoon.The trout are in great shape, most all of them jump,role,speed to mid channel, you just keep those fingers out of the way from that reel handle

and keep your tip high and enjoy the show. I know you are reading this and saying sounds too good to be true,but I just call what it is TOO COOL. Rocky here, see you out there and if I can be of service give me a call I would love to speak with you For More Details, Visit Home at http://www.LeesFerryFlyFishing.com

9/10/2010 plea for support

Hello friends of Lees Ferry, Lees Ferry needs your support. The Lees Ferry/Marble Canyon fishing and economic interest group has prepared and proposed elements with the intent of replacing the Bureau Of Reclamations actions under consideration. The BOR actions will be detrimental to our fishery, in my opinion. So what we are asking is for you to send e-mails to Dennis Kubly dkubly@usbr.gov with a copy sent to John Jordan jcjordan1@cox.net . Please state your support for LF trout fishery and opposition to any detrimental actions to that fishery and request that the Elements proposed by the LF/MC Fishing and economic interest group be included in the final environmental assessment. We need a second e-mail stating the importance and uniqueness in AZ. of the LF fishery and thanking them for their commitment to the fishery. Request their support for the Elements proposed by the LF/MCFandEIG to the extent that it does not conflict with their position as a State agency. Send to Mike Senn msenn@azgfd.gov and a copy to John Jordan jcjordan1@cox.net 1-602-840-4224 or1-208-634-8212 Thanks Rocky For More Details, Visit Home at http://www.LeesFerryFlyFishing.com

9/7/2010 fishing report

Hey my friends,Can you all say OFF THE HOOK. If so that would explain the fishing this month. The weather is perfect, the trout are fat and happy, the water level makes it possible to wade all the good bars, the eddies are full of fish. If you are quiet one can hear them slurping. Just as it was in late spring its all about the midges. Size is important color is not and dredging the bottom is not necessary, so what that means is use a dry,dropper rig or get rid of the dry and replace with a pinch on indicator and use two bead head midges and you have what I call a midging rig. This rig has been very effective. I still have days available so give me a call and we will go catching. This is a good time to make a fly fishing buddy out of your wife, best friend, son, daughter or girlfriend anyone you would like to make into a life long fly fisher. If their first time fly fishing is successful they are hooked. Hope to hear from you soon. Rocky

fishing report 8/17/2010

Hey everyone, Here is a picture of a great young man named Christopher Lane with a beautiful Lees Ferry rainbow. He and his father Phil Lane came and spent a couple of days taking advantage of the great fishing we have been experiencing. I think they caught fish just about every way one can catch fish at Lees Ferry what a great time we had. Thanks guys.Well I expect more of the same for the rest of August. September fishing is going to be great because after high flows for the summer and the fact that when they lower the flows for the fall

the fish will be condensed in the riffles. Those first two weeks of September are always good. Also another good thing that will be happening is four days of steady low flows on and around Labor day weekend. Last year we were having 100 fish days during this time. So don`t miss out on this great time to be out on the Ferry. Rocky For More Details, Visit Home at http://www.LeesFerryFlyFishing.com

Hello my fellow fly fishers,
Here is proof Lee's Ferry still has BIG beautiful rainbows. This is a picture of a 22" male, caught by Brandon Weeden. We caught this beauty drifting San Juan worms, from the boat. The cicada action is winding down a bit, but still productive enough to keep you in the action all day. Wading and nymphing is very productive in a few choice spots. When selecting a spot to wade, look for Sharp drop offs. One such spot is the top of 8 mile bar, first thing in the morning, while the water is rising. The fish are fat and sassy, they have lots of food. The lighting in the canyon is beautiful and the weather has been just right. The number of fishermen on the river is very low, and the fishing is good. People always ask what the best time of year to be here is, well this is that time of year, July and August, so in short the only thing missing is you! Give us a call if we can be of service. Rocky & Mick
