Blue River Oklahoma Fly Fishing Report and Backcasting for 2010-01-29

“COLD day on the Blue yesterday! Even though the air temp was warmer than last year’s “suffer-fest”, the wind chill was BRUTAL. 15-20 mph constant with gusts to 30. Freezing rain all day that would switch to sleet occasionally.
But, we caught fish. Tough fishing because the wind limited drifts. We finally switched to heavy, small streamers and nailed a few that way. All in all good day. I am a BIG FAN now of toe warmers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” – Joel Hays

I don’t know about you, but the water flow at this location looks higher than I have ever seen. Perhaps it is the runoff from yesterday’s weather.

• Interview with Clifford Hilbert was good yesterday. Winter doldrums still on the water. Wish I could go to Athens, TX for TPWD conference. #
