River Flow 407 CFS - Visibility Clear - AM Water Temp 44'F. - Mostly sunny day with winds 10 to 13 mph. Shaping up to be a nice day on the Housy! The fishing has been going strong here in the TMA. Lots of reports of the bigger rainbows being caught all over! -  Start off the morning swinging streamers. - If you get some takes switch over to nymphing and cover the water more closely. - CT  DEEP stocked 1200 Big Rainbows up to 17" in the TMA !!! - So call out of work and get up to Cornwall Bridge and enjoy a beautiful October day catching Big Rainbows on the Housy!! And the weather is forecast to only get warmer as the week goes on!! - At this time of year it's best to get on the river a little later in the morning. - This gives the sun a chance to warm up the river a couple degrees. - The fish become more active and the warmer water will bring on the BWO hatch.  - We are seeing some October Caddis, flying ants and spotty ISO's. - Fishing has been great in the Corner Pool, Monument, the Park & the Wall. - Other productive spots are Push-em Up, Garbage Hole, Cellar Hole, Sand Hole & the Elms. - HOUSY Trout are putting on the fall feed bag !! - The fish are taking daytime BWO's on the top and CDC emergers in the film !! - With these higher river flows the Daytime Soft Hackle and Streamer Bite is still going strong. - Today is a perfect day to get up here and deep nymph with some BH Prince's and Rubber Legs !! 

Trout are feeding all thru the TMA. - BWO's showing mid-morning thru the afternoon. - BWO CDC Emergers are the ticket for picky risers in the Park. - An effective day time technique is to swing soft hackles to sipping rises. - This is a perfect way to imitate swimming crippled BWO nymphs. - October Caddis in the late afternoon. - Also try nymphing deep during the day with a two fly rig.- On your two fly nymph rig start with a BH Prince and add a small Pheasant Tail or Hares Ear as the second fly. - Swing streamers for Trout behind exposed boulders in all the deeper riffles & pools. - Streamer fishing is a great way to cover water and to find fish. - Go back and deep nymph over any river section that produced takes on streamers.
