Comments: Second time fly fishing the Upper Clear Fork in Bellville. It was a beautiful day, but a bit nippy at times with the wind. Fished for about 5 hours from 9 AM - 2 PM. Brought out the 3 WT with a double nymph setup. Top Nymph was a Prince in a size 14 and the bottom was the Aurora Nymph in size 14. The Fish absolutely loved both flies. Didn't change flies one time during the 5 hours being out there (Thank God no snags as well).

I had a wonderful day and caught 11 beautiful Browns, 10 of them in the range of 8-10 Inches, biggest coming in around 18-20 Inches at about 2-3 pounds. Saw about 3 Fly fishing anglers out there. The weather and water levels have been amazing lately. Hoping the water level can stay around 50-100 CFS. Great time to get out of the house and hit the stream. Hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy. Tight Lines.
