Today I went out to see if I could hook up with some "old friends"......

River was in good shape, weather was perfect, and the fish were hungry!! Checked out 2 spots and beat the crap out of em. Must have caught 15/16 in a few hours (kept 2). At one point, I worked a nice spot over thoroughly with a spinner and caught 6 out of the same hole. Hit it again on my way back with a rapala and caught 2 more before I hooked something a little better!! After a great fight which included some drag peeling, I landed a nice 18" (?) chrome rainbow. Not the biggest bow I've caught but definitely the nicest!! Moved in to another spot and got a few more before I hah to go....... I hate leaving em bitin, lol. My best numbers and quality trip this year for sure....... Oh yeah, and that one bow definitely didn't come out of my bucket on stocking day. There were a few thick ones, but nothing even close to that......
