I fly fish & enjoy it, though you make it look extremely easy to do & catch fish.<br /><br />Well done!!!!!!!!!!!...........PhilDRYFLYGUYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11014193042361579019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461245170077475695.post-29313250968671352742015-10-13T05:22:48.985-04:002015-10-13T05:22:48.985-04:00Anony,

The EB has more "empty water" then most rivers have water. Move away from the C&R choke points on the Millers and you will have miles of "lonely water". As I stated, you can be alone on the Swift too. <br /><br />KenMillers River Flyfisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834066906971183890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461245170077475695.post-20184590786956384532015-10-12T19:39:08.895-04:002015-10-12T19:39:08.895-04:00Ken,

People wanting to fish away from the crowds that gather on the Swift, the Millers and more recently the EB is nothing new. There has always been a segment of the fly fishing population who prefer the challenge of searching "the road less traveled". <br /><br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461245170077475695.post-16331272046787605162015-10-12T14:17:44.450-04:002015-10-12T14:17:44.450-04:00John,

The Bliss Pool did nothing for us on Saturday but me and my clients took 10 from the head of the pool Sunday am. Friday the Bliss Poll worked!! Weird but fun.<br /><br />Paul,<br />You are soooo right!! Years ago I fished the Squani into late November with dries and had a ball. The Nissi can do it too but everyone gravitates to the Swift. It's almost like if they can't see the fish they will not fish those waters. Some blogs, that claim to cover many rivers, now only really cover the Swift. I cover three rivers and that's all I need.<br /><br />KenMillers River Flyfisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834066906971183890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461245170077475695.post-33285679453836142252015-10-12T11:18:45.169-04:002015-10-12T11:18:45.169-04:00Hey Ken,

Your post is spot on. Fish were there but scattered. We started at Les's pool at sunrise. Had two hits on a hopper in the first 15 minutes and then notta. Fish were there but seemed a bit turned off. Dead drifted some buggers and wet flies but no takes. Worked our way back up the river. Saw a gentleman pull a nice brook trout about 50 yards before the locked gate in full colors. We eventually ended up in the Bliss pool area, taking a half dozen -- mostly bows and one nice brown -- on nymphs, bead heads and emergers. Some midges hatching, and pretty sure we saw some late-season caddis coming off near the banks. <br /><br />Another great day on a great river. Thanks again for all the updates -- it makes planning a day on the water much easier.<br /><br />- johnJohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11043602698517303019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5461245170077475695.post-68469618268666380312015-10-12T08:45:45.498-04:002015-10-12T08:45:45.498-04:00Hello Ken and everyone. Just wanted to comment on ...Hello Ken and everyone. Just wanted to comment on this real quick. I think people in this state forget that there are other great rivers that hold fish year round. I fished one middlesex county gem exclusively last fall only saw a few guys and took holdovers from September right through December. There are many others like this that I am sure get written off as only being good during stocking. Give your local stockie stream a shot you may be surprised, my experience last fall changed my whole perspective.<br /> Paul FayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
