Costilla Creek - August 29th, 2012
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
78 °
FISHING: Good
Midweek is best, double dry. I'd use a caddis followed by a black parachute.

Costilla Creek - July 10th, 2012
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
76 °
FISHING: Excellent
Your only worry when fishing the Costilla, will be electrocution from lightning. Other than that, it's smooth sailing with small beadhead mayflies behind small hoppers or elk hairs.

FISHING: Excellent
Mini hot green
Mini hot yellow
Un chingo of Costilla cutts will leave you jiggling like Jell-o
Shuree Ponds are also well-stocked and productive, on callibaetis and damsel. I'd have some midges on hand too.

Costilla Creek - July 1st, 2010
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
70 °
FISHING: Excellent
Valle Vidal is open, and the fish, at least for the next little while, will be a bit silly. Still, I like to play it safe with beetle patterns and emergers, something visible like a klinkhammer or clipped down parachute adams. Please be respectful of other anglers as the Valle gets more crowded; give other anglers at least a four foot berth before stomping through their water. Seriously though.
Shuree should be on damsel fire, a theory I expect to be made fact by the time I see Jerry Baca again.

Costilla Creek - August 26th, 2009
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
75 °
FISHING: Good
Depends when you fish it. During the week, you'll find high flows and the fish hunkered down. Lose some flies, which means use a lot of weight, fish tight against logs and rocks and tree cover and the banks. Fish will be resting there, or in the middle behind some rock you can't make out through the heavy flows. On the weekend, dry flies will have a better chance, though the fish are becoming somewhat educated.

Costilla Creek - August 17th, 2009
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED: 
76 °
FISHING: Great
They're getting educated from all the two legged livestock they've been seeing in the meadows. So if you're thinking a #14 caddis, make it #16 or #18, or fish a quill winged version instead of elk hair, or a slow swinging pupa. Same with mayflies, smaller sizes, emergers. A sunken ant will work when a floater might not. Longer and lighter tippets. You get it: tone it down.

Costilla Creek - July 27th, 2009
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
83 °
FISHING: Excellent
They're not all the way wise yet, so enjoy one of the prettiest trout streams in the world. Small elk hairs and stimmies, cluster midges (which are nice beetle and ant imitations), micromays, and serendipities will do just fine. Small purple nymphs too.
And as I always say, tune your trigger finger. Those fish are there and gone in a blink. Figure out if you're hitting to slow (likely) or too fast (possible). Don't ignore the bank seams either. There are some big ones there.

Costilla Creek - July 2nd, 2009
supplied by: The Reel Life
RECORDED:
78 °
FISHING: Excellent
Valle Vidal is open now, so the fish should be relatively stupid for at least a few weeks. Small caddis work well. The main thing though is your hook set, which must be fast; we're talking Josey Wales fast.
