The second day I tried the same hole first with no bites then went up-stream to another place my father had shown me just above Monitor by an old bridge there I landed one fish as well.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Spring-2013-1359.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1088\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/2014\/02\/16\/fun-on-the-wenatchee\/spring-2013-1359\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Spring-2013-1359.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3469,3160\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;3.9&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;FinePix XP20&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1392414665&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.025&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Wenatchee Steel like red Chironomids too.\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Spring-2013-1359-1024x932.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1088\" alt=\"Wenatchee Steel like red Chironomids too.\" src=\"http:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Spring-2013-1359-300x273.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"273\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Spring-2013-1359-300x273.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Spring-2013-1359-1024x932.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/02\/Spring-2013-1359-624x568.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nAll together I have felt very happy with the fishing each time on the Wenatchee, it can look large and intimidating but if you just fish the runs that look good where you can reach you will have fun. If you ever want to book a trip on the Wenatchee a good person to call is Brad Wagner at Bobber Down he knows the Wenatchee better than anyone and it sounds like he\u2019s been having a lot of success as usual.
