Fished early this morning with flies I know catch fish on the Timber Coulee. Caught a few tiny trout. It’s been too hot too long. Heading home after I pack things up.

Didn’t fish this morning. A couple of weeks ago I got a pretty good sunburn fishing the Timber Coulee. My arms have been peeling for a few days and yesterday I got a little bit of a burn again. I’ll probably fish at sunset maybe on Coon Creek. It looks ok but it isn’t very big.

Second day of a four day Driftless Area fishing trip. I’m staying at Esofea-Rentz county park campground, a Vernon County park. Woke at four am and got on the water by seven am. Fished mostly dry flies. There was a midge hatch but very few rises. I had no luck with conventional dry flies such as mayfly, caddis, and midges but started catching fish when I switched to terrestrials; ants, beetles, and grasshoppers. Didn’t count fish today but it was more than ten.
