I recently spent most of the week roaming around the Eastern Sierra, mostly at hike in high country lakes. I did take a couple of hours one day to fish one of the roadside lakes in Mammoth. The Sheep Creek Special used to be one of my go to stillwater flies, but over the years it fell out of the rotation in favor of leeches, and beadheads, and balanced flies on jig hooks, etc. Maybe it was just sentimentality that made me dig it out of the corner of the lake box and tie it on. Four fish later I was glad I did.
