Timmy, Timmy, Timmy where are you???

Timmy, Timmy, Timmy where are you?

Oh, There you are!!!!

Went up another one of my childhood fishing spots Rainy Creek with Tom Bartlett of the Plain Fly Tyers group and Tim Opitz.  Tim and I have fished it a couple of times before but this was a first for Tom.  Fishing Rainy creek is what we call Combat fishing and Tim came out with the best scares for the day getting his leg caught in some woody, log jamb like material and breaking a rod on a good fall!!!!.  That's fishin!!!!.  We did pretty well and the next few weeks will be good as the creek gets even warmer and the bugs start to come off even more.  Rainy Creek is another one of those places that I have been going to since I was a small kid with my family.  At the time it was just a rough road pull off that we found and really we were headed for the Little Wenatchee River to fish when we found this little gem of a fishery.  What is really great is that you can fish the small creek down to the confluence of the Little Wenatchee and then fish the bigger waterway as far as you want to go....  It is a place that my wife Kim and I go to a couple of times a summer. She packs a book, lunch and sits in a great warm spot while I fly my fly for fish.
