dc410 and I met up and fished Swatara Creek in Dauphin County today. Had a nice time and caught a mix of Smallmouth and Fallfish. Both were hanging in areas of heavy current...we really struggled in the the slower water. We were both fishing streamers for the most part and it seemed like the fish wanted it dead-drifted today...very little action on an actively stripped fly.
As the afternoon turned to evening there was a quite an array of bugs that showed up. Mostly Whiteflies, but a few Cahills, and something very large, Hex's maybe? We tried our luck getting some Smallies to look up, but could only muster a few Fallfish and a Redbreast on top. A very nice late Summer evening on the water any way you slice it though.
A few pics of dc with one of the better Smallies...
