Early Season Silver Creek Report


Zac and I fished the creek yesterday, and it couldn't have felt better to be back on that piece of water.  Silver Creek is a place that puts me at peace every time I walk up and down it’s banks, and it doesn’t hurt when the fishing is good.  We got on the water just after 10:00, and the it wasn’t more than about an hour before the bugs showed up.  The hatch wasn’t thick, but there were enough PMDs to keep the fish looking up for a couple of hours.  While the numbers of bugs wasn't huge, the size was; most looked to be about a size 14.  It was t-shirt weather on the creek today, which makes you start thinking about Brown Drakes.  If this warm weather persists, it shouldn’t be too long before the big brown bugs start popping.  Until then, go have some fun with the PMDs.  It’s worth the trip.
