The Taylor River was lot tougher fishing this trip. We arrived to find the flows extremely low because of a winter with less snow then usual. Most of the big fish were still up near the dam where the majority of the mysis are still coming out. With snow the first day and night, the fish seemed turned off to any kind of feeding. We fished but couldn’t manage to get any of the fish to take out flies. The second night we could see fish, but couldn’t them to bite. While determined not to leave until I landed one of these fish, I finally managed to hook a nice, 20 inch brown. During these last two nights we managed to catch 11 brown trout with the largest being close to 6 pounds. Temperatures sub-zero at night and keeping ice off the rods was a problem. Many trips to the van were necessary to unfreeze the rods and reels and to regain feeling in our toes. The mysis shrimp was again the fly of choice and all fish were caught drifting the shrimp near the bottom. With the fish so inactive, we fished without indicators to keep the flies in the feeding lanes near the bottom where the fish were laying.
