vernon county wisconsin trout fishing


Saturday morning we experienced periods of intermittent rain but the streamer bite remained pretty consistent. The orange wooly bugger out performed most other colors. I like using the highly visible colors when fishing streamers, the takes could be seen even from the bottom of the deepest pools. The vast majority of what we caught were brookies but there were a few browns mixed in as well.

Later this week I will have some of the highlights up from the afternoon spent in Richland County as well.

  1. Nice Catch indeed! Well Done! I think I am going to have to tie a few of those buggers up. The rain did suck. I think by 10 a.m. my fly vest was drenched.
