Austin Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Hey everyone i went up to Running Rain Lake today at 7:30 got their at about 9:30 and started throwing some caddis on top and had no luck for 20 minutes. Then some of my buddys saw some cutthroats in the water clear as day looking for food after that long winter and i got over their and started throwing some caddis on top when my hook got stuck in one of the pine tree's and broke off with my hook and a foot of my leader went with it. So that's when i decided to throw a indicator with a split shot and a chronomid on then that's when 4 cuttthroats started checking out the chronomid for a a minute or so then left. They came back 2 minutes later and the biggest one out of all of them which was 12 or 13 inches took it and decided he wanted to fight. I got him in and got the hook out and took a couple pictures that i was not able to get on here but at the end of the day i caught 6 cutthroats and left the lake as a really happy man. All of the cutthroats where a decent size around 10 , 11 inches and it's espicially a good place to go to hangout catch some fish and relax , i must have saw about 25 in the water clear as day till 2:00 then that's when we decided to head out. Tight lines , Austin Quote
SteveM Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Congratz on your first cutties, Austin. They are pretty trout that live in even prettier places. I love 'em! Quote
headscan Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 They are pretty trout that live in even prettier places. I love 'em! Of course you do. There are usually pretty flowers and butterflies around for you to take pictures of as well. Quote
ÜberFly Posted July 17, 2011 Posted July 17, 2011 Austin, What was the area like around the lake?! Last time I was up there some "Random campers" with a pitbull left the area a mess with a stringer of fish dead in the water (before they changed the regs), a burning towel on their (still smoldering) fire, toilet paper and sh*t everywhere, a half full gallon of colemen fuel on the trail... So... Inquiring minds what to know? P Quote
