I've had a great first year of fly-fishing the mighty Bow, and have caught quite a few, both on nymphs and dries. I started my fly odyssey in April.
The single fish I kept this year was a Rocky Mountain Whitefish, caught in the NW. I checked the size, realized I could keep and dispatched it quickly. Pretty tasty too!
For some reason, every legal trout I've caught this year...I've had an overwhelming urge to release it, and did so.
When I fish in places like the Okanagan and Wet Coast, I didn't feel the same, and promptly fished to my limit, but only once. Hmm...
Maybe the snow is freezing my brain a bit ( ) or it could be the pre-Thanksgiving turkey coma. Thoughts?

edit: the single fish!
