NE Iowa trout streams, 8/15/2017
After flyfishing for Smallmouth the previous day, we decided to hit a couple trout streams on Tuesday.<br>
The first was a stream we had not visited before. It has a wild population of Brown Trout. Its a rather small stream. I landed a dozen browns, lost at least 1/2 dozen more, and saw a BIG one go for my fly...so big it was having a tough time turning around in the stream to chase the fly. When the fly drifted down too far, I tossed it back upstream to do another drift...several more drifts actually...but never saw that big fish again.
The ones I caught weren't Wisconsin-sized :grin::p, but still beautiful, fun fish.
