ÜberFly Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 BBT and I hit a small stream after work tonight. The water was gin clear and quite a bit lower then the last time I was there so I wasn't expecting much... After spooking a couple of fish I moved down stream to where Avalanche and I had hooked a couple a month or so ago... There were not too many rises (a few caddis fluttering around and some PEDs) so I initially thought I'd try a small hopper as tis the season (and turned one with it, but didn't land it). Chris had on a caddis and nailed a nice 17" Rainbow There was also a bully in this particular pool that went after his bow, so he suggested I should put on a streamer to try and go after that Bull - I was using my 3 wt and didn't think I had anything small enough - but went with a small zonker). Anyway, I'm glad I listened to his advise as I was rewarded with this beauty, A 21" Rainbow! I've only ever caught 12 inchers (and smaller) in this particular stream so we were both super stoked!! Not an evening of quantity, but the quality was there, for sure! Thanks for a great night Chris! P Quote
bigbowtrout Posted September 1, 2010 Posted September 1, 2010 I was happily surprised to see fish that size in such skinny water that I have only seen 13" fish in the past. Twas good to fish with ya Uber. Quote
