Streamside Report

Rowan Creek

Columbia

4-28-99

Weather: sunny, windy
Water: clear
Hatches: sporadic tan caddis
Time: 1 pm-4pm

Comments: few caddis coming off, stream work in the town park by the baseball field looks wonderful. tough time with the winds, few browns 8-9 inches on a royal wulff, and a nice 10 inch brown on a La Fontaine caddis emerger, just below the surface. Recent rains have changed the structure of the river slightly, holding pools have shifted a little, some nice black stones on the bottom, especially in the riffles, might be worth trying next time. Light tippets helpful.
