Decided to be selfish today and just go by myself down to the Clarion River. I took a rod, my backpack, most importantly a camera, and just walked the train tracks along the river to some of my favorite spots. I started off the day with nymphs. Managed to land one brown really quick and then hit a dry spell. I noticed that there was some caddis flies coming off and I saw a fish come up for one but that was it. I switched to some caddis nymphs and started really doing well. I landed a few browns and one rainbow. Being happy with my success I started walking back towards my truck. To my surprise the Hendricksons started to hatch and the fish started rising. Needless to say an hour walk downstream turned into four hours on the way back. Caught some nice fish and lost some bigger ones all on a parachute adams. What a great day to be on the water!
