WooHoo!

I finally made it out today. I took my new 7wt, figuring it was too much rod for anything I might find, but I wanted to fish it for the first time. Fished for a couple hours; nothing, but I was determined to catch a fish and baptise the new rod. I finally moved around to a spot that's usually good for a few 'gills, and caught a small bass, maybe 8". It wasn't worth a photo, but at least I didn't get skunked! But I thought I'd try one more cast, and as I was stripping it in, this guy decided to play; not a trophy maybe, but worth a photo and a good one to end on...

Hi Prairieschooner,

Good job! I want to catch something too!

You will, my friend. Good luck!
