Piru Creek - Frenchman's Flat - Feb 2008 
The filming crew for a TV Pilot called Mongoose (give or take) crowded the parking area. There was nothing happening. Yet another skunk at Piru Creek post-storm. The normal flow here is about 20 cfs, but for the last month it has been no lower than 170 cfs. I just hope that the water gets clear - at any cfs. |

Piru Creek Wild Trout - Frenchman's FlatThe bite is slow on Piru Creek after the rain storm earlier this month, but I did manage to find this beauty in a deep pool with a Caddis nymph fished without a strike indicator. It was over 14" and really had some fight in it. Wild trout, in my opinion, are some of the hardest fighting freshwater gamefish pound-for-pound.  ©Jason Barios – FlyFishingNewbie.com All Rights Reserved |
