I hit SYR yesterday just passed the last parking and the river is full, clear, and fishing well. After catching a couple small perch at El cap, I decided to go over the hill and ck out good ol Red Rock(1st time in 5yrs) and throw flies for bass and truck trout. Found a good run and seam, and started nailing em on egg patterns and caddis nymphs...to my surprise some of the fish looked real clean...dare I say native? But most were obviously truck trout but clean and still had most of their fins! 1st had my girlfriend throw a panther martin for endless short strikes, then had her put a crawler on, and couldn't keep em off the line. All fished released to the dismay of people around us who couldn't buy a fish on Power Bait! Strippped buggers, leeches, and streamers in slow deep water for smallies but no takers. The river looked so good at times I forgot I was fishing SBC!
