The Girty Fly Gets ‘em!

By LOUIE STOUT
While the majority of Michiana steelhead anglers looked dejectedly upon the swollen waters of the St. Joseph River last week, Mike Jones was busy catching fish. The Girty Fly gets ‘em!
High, muddy water makes for tough fishing conditions, but the Mishawaka angler knew the steelhead didn’t care. They’d still be on the gravel beds performing their spawning ritual.
Hoosier Trout Season Opens Saturday, April 27, 2013

The 2013 Indiana stream trout-fishing season will open as scheduled this Saturday despite high water and swift current conditions.
Department of Natural Resources officials are urging anglers to exercise caution, especially if they are fishing around dams or in flooded streams.
“The combination of strong currents and cold, deep water makes it hard to maintain your footing when wading,” said Jeremy Price, DNR’s North Region fisheries supervisor. “This would be a good weekend to leave the waders at home and fish from the bank.”
Fishing conditions will be less than ideal at some locations and trout could be difficult to find. Price said the fish will be seeking refuge in deeper pools, eddies and the downstream side of rocks, woody debris and other structures in the stream.
More than 23,500 rainbow trout will be stocked into 19 streams across the state by Saturday morning.
Stream trout fishing in Indiana opens Saturday, April 27 at 6 a.m. local time and runs through Dec. 31. Anglers must have a trout stamp in addition to a fishing license to fish for trout.
The trout are produced at DNR’s Curtis Creek Trout Rearing Station in LaGrange County.
