Beaverhead Beta Testing

Nicole Brancheau’s Beaverhead Brown

Nicole and I decided to take advantage of the improving weather conditions to do some beta testing of my Catch Fly Fishing patterns on the Beav. We tested the Eddie Vedder sowbug and my mayfly nymph pattern that I have been continuously tweaking. We also tested some standby bread and butter patterns for control and found that my new patterns were more productive. We hooked several large bows and browns but these were the largest we were able to land and photograph. Nicole did land her largest trout to date in her short (6 mo) fly fishing career.
