Fly Fishing Winter Outing - Bennett Spring 12-2014


Dan and I went to the Heart of America Fly Fishers annual winter outing December 6th through the 8th. Enjoyed a nice lunch on the spring branch Saturday with the club and then banquet that night. Weather really wasn’t bad at all for that time of year. We stayed up at Sand Spring Resort. We caught quite a few rainbows in the park, although maybe not as many as usual. Best flies seemed to be the Wooly, copper john, soft hackle, crackle back, egg pattern, and a few on an Adams. Twice we went out to the river at Barclay, the first time fished above the canoe takeout and the second time at the Winchester Gap area. Caught about a half dozen browns and rainbows there, which was good for us. A very nice trip overall. I haven’t really been able to fish  much this year.
