January 10th Peter's Creek

Fished Peter's Creek with Tom K. today. Originally were going to try to go to Indian Creek and some other small Brookie streams in the mountains, but the weather forecast suggested otherwise. The weather was much less than ideal. Was cloudy and near freezing when i arrived around 11am. Tom had already been out an hour before i got there and had landed one in a deep fast hole on a Trout Worm. When I met up with him we both had hook ups on wolly buggers. I landed two small rainbows on a small black beadhead flashbugger. By then the weather had turned to freezing rain. We moved upstream from there to a secluded stretch and Tom landed this very nice bow on a black bugger.



























We moved upstream again to a familiar stretch with no luck. The weather had turned to a steady rain in the meantime. No luck there. Took Tom back to his truck and stopped at one last spot on my way home. The water went from a nice light green, to minty green, to nearly brown in the time i was there due to the melt off and the rain. Landed two further small trout on white Trout Worm. Headed home around 3pm.
































4 hours in the crappy weather was better than sitting in the house on a Saturday.
