Opposite weather of last week. We are on a serious warming trend so look for ice to start breaking up. The creek is on the way up and will be a little off color.
Here are a few tips for fly fishing Rock Creek:
1. Double nymph rigs have been the most effective.
2. Fish the slow inside bends and deeper pools
3. Fish where you can't see the bottom
Here are a few fly suggestions:
1. Pearl Jam, 14-16
2. Spanish Bullet, black 14-16
3. Purple chubby 10-14
4. Kreelex Minnow size 6, in copper/gold
5. TJ Hooker size 10-12, in coffee/black
6. Pheasant Tail Nymph size 12-20
Flows and looking ahead:
Rock Creek is currently sitting at 185 cfs
