We are solidly in winter fishing mode, and it has been great. While we are all ready for some snow and real winter weather, I have been taking full advantage of the warmer weather we have had. Most of the fish have posted up in the slower, deeper sections, and slow nymph and streamer presentations have been working well. It seems like more Brown Trout have recovered post-spawn and are feeding more actively and aggressively. Remember that dressing in layers and fishing during the warmest part of the day is the key to staying warm and finding success. Give us a shout if you have any questions about how to properly gear up for winter fishing.

Here in the shop, we have our final session in our fall fly tying series this Thursday from 6:00–8:00 PM. A huge thank you to everyone who has participated in the fall tying series. You all have made it so much fun, and it has been great to have so many people hanging out in the shop. We will be closed during the month of January but will start a new fly tying series on Thursday, February 5th. So, if you missed the fall series, you will have another opportunity to come out and have some fun tying.

We hope that everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We look forward to seeing you all in 2026.
