Exploring The Farmer's Fields.

A few weeks ago Andy, and I went to check out the mile 20 area on the upper squamish. We parked at the pullout just as the road turned from pavement to gravel, and began our quest to check out the river and find some new spots. Not far after we had left the car we came to a nice corner, and chucked a few casts to see what was there. After both of us had worked our way through it and had no luck at all we decided to move on to the next run. We bushwacked through some trees and found our way down to the river bank, we worked our way through a short run and we both hooked up on a couple dollies. After that we moved on to the next run and found a couple more big bulltrout. We fished through it for awhile and didn't pull anything more out of that spot. We decided to make our way back and try a couple of the spots we tried earlier to see if there might be something there. There were one or two, and that ended the day.. A bit of a walk, but it was worth it in the end.. A funny thing, we went back a week later too check it out again and every spot we wanted too fish we couldn't so we had to cross the river and hike down the Ashlu side down to Crooked Creek. It was a long trek but we did find one or two down there. We hiked backed up and went over a log jam and found another cool spot, that had a couple of bullies in it.. All in all it was good excercise, and lots of fresh air..
