Fly Fishing NH's Connecticut Lakes Region

September 24th fishing report Pittsburg, NH

Is Amaya a little excited? Damn right she is!  That’s Amaya Bell with a gorgeous brookie  caught on a UV Czech nymph on the Trophy Stretch this morning.  I was able to fish today with my friends the Bells and we had a great day. We got a few fish but it was the fall foliage that was so spectacular. I would say the foliage is peak in Pittsburg right now. The water flow on the Trophy and below Murphy dam have been on the low side this week but we have heard that possibly this Friday, Trans Canada will be increasing the flows a bit. That will help the fishing and the fish.

fall foliage (1024x460)OMR drifted the Andro on Tuesday and reported back that his clients did very well on BH Pheasant Tails with a olive Hatching Pupa dropper bringing 15 + trout to the boat. Not bad for a half day drift.

Dave Poole guided on Coon Brook Bog today and reported back that his people also did well and picked up a bunch of nice brook trout. I also heard good things about Terrill Pond. Dave also did the lower Connecticut River on Tuesday and did well on Black Ants.

Back Lake was boiling tonight with rising fish.  There’s not much time left to the season. Only three weeks. Get up here before it’s over.
