Had the last few days off from work and wanted to spend it fishing. I recently got a new ride that doesn't have a tow hitch, yet, so I havnt been able to take my boat out. Instead, I spent the time hitting the trout streams. Walked a few miles of awesome water, some new, some not, and caught a bunch of fish!!
Got em on just about everything I threw at em. Rapalas in a few different colors, spinners of all brands and colors. At one point I was fishing the same pool as another guy from different sides of the river. We bs'd for a few minutes and ended up doublin up on a couple nice bows!!!
Few other highlights were my first wild brookie I caught at a random pull off. Was only 5-6" but was a beaut. Self released while I was trying to get a pic. Also, a 20" + bow I hooked and lost as I was tryin to get a pic. I came up to a small backflow pool that had collected and covered over with foam. I tossed my lure a bit upstream and let it float in. First twitch he swung and missed but nailed it the second time. Got em right up to me and saw a nice thick fish. Unfortunately he got off before I could grab him..........
