Superior Fly Angler Fishing Reports...

Fishing report 10-26-11

Gentlemen,  Thanks for hooking me up with wading boots last week.  A few photos from my day trip.

Thanks again
John

Fishing report 10-20-11

Water levels still low but there are enough fish around to keep most people interested. Most reports are of 1-2 hook ups, but some reports of up to 5 hook ups are out there. some browns and cohos still moving through. red foxsquirrel nymphs, x-legs, prince nymphs, glo bugs are standard menu items, but i still throw the whole box at them if they arn't showing interest in the standard fare.

Fishing Report 04/03/2011:

The Brule continues to fish well.  Today’s rain/snow is pushing water levels up a little, but not too bad.  The lower river will probably be a little dark for the next couple of days, but should clear fast.  Reports of a few bright fish around, but most of what I’ve seen have been pretty dark.

Opening day 2011, coldest day I've ever fly fished.  Guides and line froze up every five minutes and broke my tip trying to clean them!  But i did manage to get this one in.

Matthew and I hit the Brule for a couple hours last Thursday. I hooked the fish, we switched rods and he got bring in the 25" hen steelhead. ----mp

3/30/11 from Matt

The lower Brule opened to fishing Sat. low temps ranged from 3-8 degrees depending where you were in the valley. Hence there were alot of frozen guides until well into the afternoon. The WI DNR stated last week that in excess of 8000 steelhead entered the brule last fall. Water temps have been in the mid 30's  but the warmest we have heard of was 36. The water temps will be variable to time of day (solar warm up) and where on the river you are (The closer you are to lake superior the more impact you will get from feeder creeks and runoff). Trying to find actual water levels, cfs, is tricky right now since the USGS page is still reading "ice", but water levels are good. The water is quite clear still. Fish are being hooked on stones, x-legs, red fox squirrel nymphs, kaufmann stones, and egg patterns, orange and charteuse being best. Don't hesitate to try some large prince nymphs or hares ear patterns and also switch up your egg patterns (color or size). It could make all the difference. Good Luck! 

Great afternoon yesterday in the high landing water. hooked two steelhead and a brown and took a mighty swim in 18 of water, at least it was 70 degrees and i had a change of clothes. water temp 51.

The air temp was a brisk 30 and the water temp was at 37.  We did not  find many fish on the redds but the fish were holding in the slower  runs.  All three of us connected with fish and two of us landing them.  The fish I landed was a big hen which taped out a 29", my blood was just pumping when I was saw how big she was. Various shades of orange Glow  bugs continue to be the hot fly this season.

Later in the day we  checked out a number of other tribs along the lake shore and finding  little water that suited our taste. We when back to familiar water and  found many cars parked along the river. We finally found a spot with  only one car and gave this l section of the river a shot.  I was able to land one more fish around 2pm, he was a nice buck running 27".
