South China Spring - Baker, OR Fishing Report on 25th Jun, 2024

Fin made his first trip to Upper Dam to fly fish the famous salmon pool, where Carrie Stevens created several streamer fly patterns in the early 1900’s, including the renown Gray Ghost.. She tied the flies without a vice and provided sportsman, who frequented the pool with he creations.. After tying the ghost, it produced a 6.5 pound salmon in the pool, expanding its worldwide popularity, putting Maine and the Rangely area on the fly fishing map... Well, Fin didn’t catch the monsters within the depth of the pool, but he made Papa proud of his ability to present a dry fly to entice a few to the net. He’s hooked... My brother Skip bought the old loggers lodge and exquisitely resurrected its original charm with a few comforts that I’m sure the loggers would have appreciated..
