Williams Creek Reservoir & Tailwater

Wind, wind, wind, wind, wind, wind, wind, wind with wind. It's stupid to get angry at the wind but very very easy to do. The wind and clouds seemed to have plans that did not include fishing during the last 48 hours. The wind howled at Williams Creek Res, but we did catch some Kokanee from shore using jigs, both black and yellow maribou. That was fairly surprising, but they were of decent size (for kokes) and really really tasty. The tailwater seemed to be a bit off color and moving quick and we didn't catch anything down there. Either way, we returned to camp and cooked some kokes that were delicious. Olive Oil, Salt, Pepper and a good fire is all you need (tin foil helps) We threw them right on the coals for 15 mins which may be about 3 mins too long. Tasty. This morning we fished Williams Creek lower down with no luck. I realized that I might need some bigger bugs. Being used to the San Juan and Animas I realized that I have very few flies bigger than size 24.
