Hi Guys,
I fished San Juan Worm for the first time this weekend on Hot Creek and Upper Owens. There was one section on Hot Creek where 5 different people passed through without sticking any fish (me included)with the regular stuff (nymphs, drys, etc.) On my way back I threw on a dirty version of the San Juan Worm. I immediately stuck three fish with 10 drifts! I felt like I was cheating... but it was fun! I am now a believer in the San Juan Worm. Also stuck some fish on the Upper Owens with this pattern. Anyhow, they do work!
Good luck!
Mo
