Swede Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Had a great day on the Red Deer yesterday, despite getting poured on from 8 p.m. untill 1 in the morning. Water clarity was excellent. Had lots of hookups with Walleye, Goldeye and even Whitefish. Wasn't enough hatching to get the browns looking up, so I ended up fishing a black leech with pretty good results. Hooked into this nice brown in about a foot of water. Nice length but kinda lean. About an hour later, had a solid hook up with the biggest brown I have tangled with yet. Unfortunately the hook popped out of his mouth when he gave us a good thrashing on the surface. Unbelievable 30" for sure but who knows. Anyways I know where he lives now... Thought I would introduce my friend to fishing and he is hooked now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swede Posted July 7, 2009 Author Share Posted July 7, 2009 Nice bruin, I am going to have to get up there for a float. Hey Jay I talked with you about floating the Red Deer at the fly fishing expo. If you and a buddy want to float it let me know, my wife will shuttle us. I'll try and get you guys into a few of the browns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
