Solitude: the state or situation of being alone
On Sunday I hiked into the mountains of Potter County, Pennsylvania in search of wild brook trout. I fly fished a small freestone tributary that was 3 miles in length. It was an overcast day with occasional light rain showers. Most fishermen would have defined these conditions as perfect. The water levels were slightly above average due to the amount of precipitation we’ve already received this spring. I observed sporadic hatches of Blue-Winged Olives (BWOs) and Sulphur mayflies. I found success using a dry-dropper rig. My lead fly was a #14 Thunder Dome emerger pattern, created by Skip Morris. I changed out my dropper several times but found the most success with a #16 red lightning bug nymph.
99% of my videos are self-filmed. 99% of my videos are on water I've never fished. All streams are accessed on foot.
