The Clock Is Ticking .......

This will be the last weekend one will be able to trout fish (Catch & Release) all streams here in SE Minnesota. After the 15th, only streams within the borders of area State Parks will be open to fish so make a few last trips to the water a priority! Some very nice Browns are being taken on streamer patterns, black BH Wooly Buggers and soft hackle emerger patterns. Be sure to stop in at The Drifltess Fly Fishing Company fly shop in Preston, MN and get your need supplies, then wet a line. Also, keep in mind, the Holiday season will be here before you know it so plan ahead .... give a guided fly fishing trip as a gift! Melvin Hayner is the areas only Orvis endorsed fly fishing guide. Check out the website, www.minnesotaflyfishing.com for details.
