Troutin' w/ Uglystick Jim today

Hit the river w/ Jim trying for some 'bows bright and early....Weather was a warm 35 degrees for this time of year, and the water was a bit high which was good......fish were very cooperative as between the both of us we caught @ 40 all on artificials.....Never thought I'd like fishing in the winter as much as I have been this year...As far as me 'lipping' the one trout, it was my bad and before anyone slams me for doing that, I just want to say I got a little careless today because I was balancing on a rock in the middle of the stream and I NEVER EVER have held a trout that way before today....So I apologize in advance to anyone that gets upset at that....Other than that, it was a good day ..Almost every trip has been decent in some way or another.........bonus Brown trout was an unexpected surprise..all fish Catch, Photo, and Released today......Here's a few from today.....
