How about a few Sharpie tips for your spring trout season?
- If the water is low and clear and the fish are spooky, try painting over that bright bead on your nymph with a black permanent marker.
- When the fish are rising to emerging duns and refusing your dry with a white parachute post or light-colored wings, darken them with a gray marker. You’ll match that hatch a lot better and fool more fish.
- Write your name and phone number on the inside of every fly box. A good Samaritan might just find your missing box and return it to you. That happened to Dredger, who unknowingly dropped his box of attractor dries along Soda Butte Creek a few summers ago. Several weeks later, he received the box in the mail from a kind Utah trouter who fished Yellowstone Park soon afterward.
We hope these three Sharpie tips make your future trout trips even more rewarding. What tips can you share with the rest of us?
