The weather has started to cool off, but we still have plenty of time for some of the best trout fishing of the year. Off colored water provides the perfect opportunity to utilize some of your favorite patterns, but maybe in some different color schemes. The Alexandra is amazing in any color, but blue has worked wonders for fall fishing in years past. Tie some for yourself and get the net ready.
