Had a special opportunity to be up on the upper end of Lost Creek reservoir a couple weeks back. During a quick lunch break I fished the inlet stream. Was hoping to see some salmon spawning but did not see any. However small cuties were plentiful and very willing to play peek-a-boo with my Royal Wuff. Grouse and Chukers seen but not harassed. Elk were singing.
Lots of work being done in preparation to open this area of the state park to the general public. It will sure open up opportunities for us bank tanglers.
Quick video of that section of stream. Bad news is I broke my flyrod tip off battling those little monsters. Actually twas a willow who claimed my prize rod tip.

Nice quick video. I enjoyed it. Sad that the tree bandit caught the tip. You said it’s a Cabela’s 3wt. I’ll be looking for a short 3-4 wt in a bit. After I heal from my surgery. I’m having a hard time deciding on fiberglass or graphite. What Cabellas fly rod were you using?
