So I finally decided to try Bear creek since it just had fish put in and I haven't been out in over 6 weeks. I arrived at the lower end of the DHALO and fished for an hour without a take or even spotting a fish. So I decided to try the upper end for a little. I started at the bridge fishing down stream, again nothing. After fish down around the bend I met a young man and his girlfriend. He proceeds to tell me he caught over 100 fish in that whole in the last 2 days. After talking to them they said they were leaving and I should try fishing there. I must have to say I thought they were possibly exaggerating the story but whatever.
So I started fishing and caught 1 then another. By the end of the day I had well over 40 myself. All fish were 10 to 12 inches, nothing big. At noon I actually left the hot spot and fished down to about the midway point and couldn't find another fish. Walked back up caught a few more before the young guy came back with another friend. They immediately started catching fish so I decided to pack it in for the day and let them have the hole to themselves.
All I can fegure is that they dumped all the fish at the bridge in the upper end an they all moved 100 yards down stream to the deeper water.
O well enough rambling, I'm not much of a writer so apologies if it was hard to read. Bottom line it was a good day to take a vacation day and fish.
