Things couldn't be much better on these two rivers. On the 19th I took two hours in the evening on the EB and had great dry fly fishing for rising rainbows using a hendrickson spinner. That hatch, which is over on this river, still produced. I guess the trout have good memories!
The Millers, with it's LOW WATER, is doing very nicely! Browns and rainbows are hitting the surface and March Browns are beginning to make their appearance and should be doing their thing for the next month. Times are good!!
Something to watch - we could use a little rain. Just a light, steady rain that would last for a day. Not the monster downpours of the last two years. That would be good!!
I'm starting to think of the Swift again. The flows have become reasonable which gives us a third option. I'd love to hit all three this week. That would be GREAT!!

Ken,
I am a bit surprised/disappointed not hearing from you about the TU camp out weekend, How did the event go, the pursuing fishing and the climate in general?
Anything you can tell us about the the fishing you heard from others who attended?

I attended the Indian Hollow event. Fishing was slow right by the campground but the gorge pocketwater was great. I had a grand-slam on Saturday in about 2-hours. The only thing that would have made it better was if they were taking dries.
BT,
I haven't attended the Indian Hollow event since 2005. Living 15 minutes from the EB and fishing it twice a week will do that.
My days as a functioning TU'er are pretty much over. Being a president of two different chapters will also do that.
Excited to hear that the gorge section is fishing well. My father and 2 brothers are doing our annual spring fly trip to hit the Westfield, Deerfield, and Cold rivers for 4 days. The middle branch of the Westfield in most parts have been fishing very well as well as the upper and lower Quinapoxet in the last 3 weeks :) Tight lines and be safe.
