osprey Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Was down on the Bow fishing with my father in law last week. He hooks into a nice Brown while swinging a stonefly. This is fat 18" fish. Good fight, he's bringing the fish into the shallows and I'm behind the fish to land him. Suddenly there is a much bigger Rainbow (about 23") shadowing this fish not more than 3 or 4 feet from me. He keeps his position until I get a hold of the brown then he goes away. My father in law thinks the Rianbow was interested in the stonefly hanging in the browns jaw on that side. I think the rainbow was being territorial. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SanJuanWorm Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I watched 3 bulls going after max's caught bull. They were trying to get at the streamer. Coolest thing i've ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
