Catskill Fly Fishing Report 5/27-5/31

[Leif]

I fished the East branch and Beaverkill from Monday night until Friday morning. I had tremendous action on dries and streamers catching fish each morning and afternoon. I used March Browns, Conovers and large olive and black marabou streamers. I have to say it was one of my best outings ever. I had 10 fish from 16 to 22 inches on Monday and Tuesday. Three on streamers and the rest on Conovers and March Browns size 12. I managed several others that were smaller in a different spot. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday were very good as well, catching 2 to 4 fish each morning and evening on dries and olive marabou streamers. Mostly dries.
Here are some pictures. All fish were landed quickly and released unharmed except one...

[AndyS]

Ahhhh, 5 days of trouting, you lucky man, nice fish.

I love the Beaverkill ! No stops on the Willow ?

[Leif]

Thanks guys!

Andy no Willow this time. Just the Beverkill and East Branch. Wanted to but the fishing was so good on the other two rivers so I just stuck with that.

Here are a few more pictures...
