Pequest -- 12/8/13
Hit the Pequest today. Started around 830 AM and fished until 2 PM. Needless to say, it was COLD. Ice on my guides throughout the day. Managed 3 fish--2 bows and one small wild brown. The bows were pretty thick and feisty. In one spot I hooked a really nice fish drifting an egg. Took off downstream thrashing. Turned her and started working it back. She kept rolling--drag was set light, no horse play... then BOINK! Gone... Hook pulled. SH*T!!! That drives me nuts. But that's also what keeps us going back for more... Fish was 3-4 lbs conservatively--nice rainbow. Here's some shots from today.
