We didn’t get any reports from Kirman this week but in case you missed my shared post on FB, the DFW planted about 3500, 1 to 2 pound brooks in Kirman last week or the week before. It seems they are working on trying to get Kirman back to its historical glory, awesome news!!

I would say that right now, with the water conditions the way they are, as well as the fact that the fishing was pretty good before the planting it should be pretty good up there. I would be trying some leech patterns, soft hackles and scud patterns. Also, we’ve been hearing fairly recently that there are anglers having good success stillwater nymphing with small scud and nymph patterns dropped off an indicator so this might be something to try if the leeches don’t work.
