Bosebuck's Little Trout

Bosebuck's Little Trout is an original pattern, created by Rick Estes. The upper Magalloway River in western Maine is noted for its wild brook trout fishery. Bosebuck Mountain Camps has sat at the northern end of Aziscohos Lake since the early 1900's. Not unlike most large Eastern Brook Trout and Landlocked Salmon, the wild trout and salmon of the Upper Magalloway are quite cannibalistic. This pattern has been developed to imitate the young trout of this watershed. As a guide out of Bosebuck Camps, Rick has found it to be a very effective pattern, and his clients have taken some very nice trout and salmon with it. This fly as well as many others are available for purchase right here at camp. All of our flies are tied here in New England.

Boy, what a change in the weather overnight. Although temps dropped into the teens, the sun is out and the temperature is rising, already up to 42 degrees. Thankfully the wind has died down too, so the lake is much calmer. We watched at least 8 to 10 loons in front of camp this morning fishing for their breakfast while we ate ours. Sure is a beautiful day here today! Don't you wish you were here?
