I was down in Renton
visiting my grand-daughter today and fished the Cedar for about 1.5 hours
afterwards. It was mid-day and hot as can be but the fishing was still
very good. I had to use nymphs to get fish, I tried dries a bit but had
no luck with them. Nymphing the heads of runs produced well as the fish
are stacked up in deep slots of heavily oxygenated water. I landed one
nice whitefish, 2 smallish trout and 3 very nice trout including one that went
18-19” and was a thick, strong fish. I had another fish on that
went 14” easy and lost him. All fish came to a #18 PT nymph that
was dropped behind a big stonefly nymph.
Only a month left to the season on the Cedar, I’m
going to miss it when it closes this year.
