Date Fished: 5/12/2001
Water Temperature: 65
Water Clarity: 4 feet or greater Fishing Northern Arizona once again had the pleasure to fish with Bill McBurney of Ambassador Guide Services. We went to Powell to film a show, "Fly Fishing for Stripers on Powell" which will air June-16-th at 5:30-am on KUSK. Bill took us to a location that he had been working for the past 10-days and new a large school of fish had settled in. We began chumming with anchovies and then the fun began. He brought them in within 20-feet of the boat and we were able to through fly's their way. We managed to catch 20-stripers within 2-hours and had enough film for a show. These fish would hit the fly and take you to the reel, pulling a good 30-to-40-feet of fly line with them. Each averaged between 2-and-4-pounds. It felt so good on a fly rod. The next day my wife and I went back out to an area close by and caught 5-more to keep. What a great trip.
