    RE: fly fishing

    Best flyfishing for trout near Lexington is the Dix River tailwater (below Herrington Lake). Excellent fishing for brown and rainbow trout, some large. Sowbugs and small (18 - 20) nymphs imitating midges or Blue Winged Olives are good. Streamers through the deeper, slower sections can produce some large fish. Access is a problem though as the surrounding land is Kentucky Utilites property and off-limits. Need to come up via boat a couple of miles from KY river. Worth the trouble though.

    For stream smallmouth, Elkhorn Creek below Fankfort is great.
