Nev, I don't know why either. The Chili Pepper is one of the top flies on Crooked Creek. We had the other Grand Kids over on Dry Run Creek several times the past two weeks and they did well with the trout there on Chili Peppers. The Grand Daughter that we took to Crooked Creek hooked several trout at Dry Run but did not land any. It was her first time with a fly rod. I know I said that Crooked Creek was the first time with a fly rod but what I meant it was the first time to land a fish on the fly rod. On Crooked Creek was the second time that I had a Gill attacked by a Bass. Tony

Crooked Creek is a very attractive spot and looks very “fishy”. Strange the smallmouths weren’t taking the chili pepper. It seems you needed a small bluegill fly if there is such a fly. I have had similar situations with fish that I have hooked being taken by larger fish such as perch, pike and here in BC by bull trout. (char really – don’t know why we call them trout). It is always exciting when that happens. Neville (Nev) Gosling Greater Vancouver BC Canada -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
