I see that one of the [many] stillwater trout specialists is now a capr guy I guess....everyone succumbs...even this [faux] musky dude. The allure of a slimy oversize minnow....

yeah, as Evan said, low vis is tough. Plus, you'd probably want to get out there VERY early to avoid the fish that ARE feeding to have been spooked by passerby folks repeatedly. Case in point, went to my similarly colored local lake early this morning, had a couple of shots of mini-caprs in...

the top option here is what I ended up with. It also has helped me trim down which rods I actually need to keep around. because I only bought it for rods I use regularly (ish)...the rest I have in a large garbage can (really need to start selling or giving away some stuff!)

Can't wait to see the full uniforms!

whoa, thanks! what would be classified as "barely done"? ever do a [wet] brine prior to smoking?

That's precisely the idea.....lol

I'll have to check hazelnut out. I really like apple for chicken and pork and tuna for that matter. pretty mild. I also really love doing things with cherry. Mesquite isn't really my jam (neither is hickory).... oh, no. that doesn't count....

Hows yous like 'em?

maybe this is a mistake to let @Tom Butler anywhere near capr. All these doubles and triples he's gonna start posting....

Capt. Chuck was Red....something but not the dish soap... assuming we're talking about the same one out of Hammond with a 40ish foot boat, was red, he was salty as fuck.

Man, the bugginess of that fly!!!! I'll bet that the CAPRs would really eat that up!

stillwater trout? or stillwater anything? I know you meant trout....so for me it'd be tough to go against an olive leech pattern. or black. flip a coin.

Subspecies of the clam eggo. Just a little Wormeggo...

Thanks for the opinions all. Like I stated earlier, I've got a long runway here. I'm failing to see any "paralysis", just a little analysis. But thanks for your contribution @albula, that was very insightful.

Oh yeah, definitely a consideration.

All one needs to do is look what's parked in any grocery store parking lot and how pristine they all look.

You've got some honkin' short fin grayling there! Solid rainbows too!

those are definitely in play....even if it ends up being FWD. I like the size.
