I would say the size of the fish ranks in the order previous as well although the fight of Little Twins fish could put it in first for sure. Most trout fishing has been about the staples buggers, chronis, damsels (nymph and adult) and San Juan worms.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1565\" style=\"width: 247px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-029.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1565\" data-attachment-id=\"1565\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/2014\/06\/12\/methow-fishing-report-13\/6-9-14-029\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-029.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3240,4093\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;6.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;FinePix XP20&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1402350187&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0018181818181818&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"6-9-14 029\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;The Big Dog w another Big Hog&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-029-810x1024.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1565\" src=\"http:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-029-237x300.jpg\" alt=\"The Big Dog w another Big Hog\" width=\"237\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-029-237x300.jpg 237w, https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-029-810x1024.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-029-624x788.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 237px) 100vw, 237px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1565\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Big Dog w another Big Hog<\/p><\/div>\n<p>As well as trout I have been out chucking at bass as is often to my liking at this time of the year as well. The Methow isn\u2019t always talked about as a spinney ray Mecca but it&#8217;s not hard to find very large and aggressive bucket mouths ready to show you a good time. Fishing for bass is exciting and can test your nerves as well as your accuracy as casting into structure is the name of the game.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1558\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-010.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1558\" data-attachment-id=\"1558\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/2014\/06\/12\/methow-fishing-report-13\/6-9-14-010\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-010.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3138,2276\" 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;1402339496&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;100&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.003125&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"6-9-14 010\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Home-spun Damsels paid off&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-010-1024x742.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1558\" src=\"http:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-010-300x217.jpg\" alt=\"Home-spun Damsels paid off\" width=\"300\" height=\"217\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-010-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-010-1024x742.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.flyfishersproshop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/6-9-14-010-624x452.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1558\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Home-spun Damsels paid off<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I know what you\u2019re thinking though, what about the river!

My focus at this point is usually from Winthrop to Wieman Bridge on the Methow and the Twisp River right now.
