Leaping Salmon in the Granite State


With the mild winter in the northeast, it was an early ice-out for much of southern and central New Hampshire. Smelt got an early start as they began to migrate out of the lakes to spawn, which of course were followed by hungry landlocked salmon. Surprisingly, many of these rivers were fishable despite runoff and numerous rain storms. Many fly fishers assumed all the rivers were blown out last week, but there were a few hard hearted fly casters out there giving me some company.

Early mornings seemed to be the ticket in landing a leaping salmon, but rainbows were hooked throughout the day. Beautifully dark colored rainbows no less than 16 inches were caught on egg patterns, while salmon were surprisingly taken on caddis pupae. The action was so consistent throughout the day on a double rig system under an indicator that I did not even try swinging smelt patterns. Able to sneak away Easter morning, I had the most action on the river thus far, not to mention the entire stretch to myself. Hopefully the water will stay cool and higher keeping the salmon in the river for awhile.

Tight Lines!
