SE Fly Fishing 2010!  (United States)

 Hey fly fishermen, I'm looking for some fly fishing in South East Minnesota, not too far from the cities( 30 min drive or less).
I was wondering if you guys would give me some places where I can try and what kind of fly I should use.
I'm new to fly fishing so help would be great! I plan on going somewhere around mid march and was wondering if that'll be good timing or not.
Thanks

 Alright. But just the other day, I went down to Trout Brook. Never been there before so that was my first time.
It was kind of wet and drizzling so no luck but saw a couple trouts. Idk if anyone has been down there but advices would be great! thanks!

Re: SE Fly Fishing 2010!  (United States)

Trout brook is a very small stream and as a result it has very small trout in it.  Find some local anglers that fish down there to get some more info.  Posting on the web about specific streams and locations is generally frowned upon.  Also make sure to check the regulations for all the streams you fish as it sounds like when you were fishing "the other day" it was out of season...

Re: SE Fly Fishing 2010!  (United States)

 I guess I have a different perspective on what a fishing site is for.Obviously this person is new to the area and to fly fishing and what would be wrong with posting some information on where he might be able to catch a fish. Help about the season opening was I'm sure helpful but to have some unspoken rule about naming streams and locations seems to defeat the purpose of a site like this. After all it is a forum and also a fly fishing report. Oh, but there are trout in Minnesota, we just can't tell you where. Does anyone else see it the way I do?

Re: SE Fly Fishing 2010!  (United States)

Yes, give the guy some real advice. We're trying to get people into fly-fishing, not scare them off.  I say fish the Root, Trout Run Creek, and the Whitewater.  Try some dark hendricksons/all-purpose nymphs and dark hendrickson dries on the Root and Trout Run this time of year, but it has been warm, so that early hatch may have faded.  Also, caddis larvae nymphs on all three, small caddis dries, and always be ready with some blue-wing olives. Always have some hare's ears, pheasant tails, and scud nymphs.  The hare's ear and pheasant tails imitate lots of things, there are tons of scuds (freshwater shrimp) in there.  I am wondering how far ahead the hatches are, my wife and kids are going to the whitewater tomorrow to fish in the park tomorrow.  I have heard the Dark Hendricksons are less prevalent than they used to be, and if so, that's a bummer.  My wife and I love that hatch, the fish get so aggressive.

Re: SE Fly Fishing 2010!  (United States)

 Thanks for your post. I fished the White Water yesterday and the Root in Forestville State park today. No big fish caught ,but did manage to catch a few smaller browns. Lots of fish rising today on the root. Had allot of fun using a small black caddis dry.

Re: SE Fly Fishing 2010!  (United States)

 Okay, thanks for your advice. Honestly, I see other people posting about "specific streams and location", what's your purpose? I mean, this is a forum, you write whatever you want and ask for help. I'm new and i'm just looking for some good spots. If you don't want to give me any, that's fine. Also, if you don't have anything good to say, i'd say you just view and leave. Thanks
