Fishing Reports RSS

I'm sorry I didn't get the daily reports up on our website like I'd planned, but for some reason, I couldn't get the pictures to load correctly to our site while I was down there. However, I was able to post daily reports on our Facebook Page, so if you want to see a lot more pics and detailed reports, check out the McLellan's Fly Shop Facebook Page. A great big "THANK YOU!" goes out to all of the guides and staff at Pesca Maya! We had a great week, and we can't wait to get back down there next...

I just received this smallmouth report from David: "Hey man, hope you had a blast in Mexico. I just got back from a slightly less exotic 24-mile float in the Lower Buffalo Wilderness Area (we put in at Rush and floated to the White River), and the smallmouth action was red hot! I tied on an olive Crazy Dad at the beginning of the trip and didn't switch flies for 3 days--unimaginative, I know, but the fish never quit biting it, so I just couldn't bring myself to change.

Also, I wanted to let everyone know that while we’re gone, Ryan will be holding down the fort, and he’ll have the shop open from 11am to 6pm June 4-8 (Monday thru Friday), regular hours (10-5) on Saturday—sorry for any inconvenience! Hopefully, the next time you see this crab, it will be hanging from the lips of a palometa!

The dry-fly fishing at Taneycomo was great today! My buddy Loren and I drove up there early to get in a half day of fishing, and it was well worth the trip! We caught several feisty rainbows on Turk’s Tarantulas and various beetle patterns—black seemed to be their favorite color!
