Today I decided to get in my first fall trouting. Wanted to check out some more new water so I went exploring. First couple spots seemed unable to hold any fish, let alone decent ones so I kept moving. After putting more than a few miles on my car I found some productive water.
First hole gave up two fish tank size smallies. Not bad, but kept moving. Next hole produced a nice chunky holdover bow.

Quick release and kept going. Next hole I tossed a perfect cast right next to a log. As I realed it in a watched a 15"+ palomino come charging out after it. Thought for sure it was game on but he peeled off at the last second. Through a few more offerings at it but it just sat in the current and mocked me, lol. Smart fish, hope I get back to him before someone else does. Hooked and lost another bow on my way back and called it a day. Def going back......
