Saturday, Sunday and Monday my grandpa, Scorcho and I went up to the High Sierra's. We went to the Lower Owens river so that I can catch my first brown. At first I thought I would freeze.
But I was only cold a few times. Scorcho got a few river samples so we can see what flies to use. There was; stone flies, caddis and may flies.



I started with a small size 22 black midge nymph. I hooked up right away
This was my first fish, a rainbow trout. I caught rainbow trout all day! No brown trout.
The second day all rainbows no brown trout.




The third day I finaly caught my first BROWN TROUT! The fly i used was a red glass bead head black WD40 size 22. My grandpa had 4 of these flies and i lost 3 that fish broke off. When I caught my first brown I got one of the red glass bead head fly i had lost the day before.



I was so happy i was shocked the whole day and became an offical net boy for my grandpa for the rest of the day. Here are the flies we used size 22,24 and a salmon egg . I hooked a monster rainbow and it bent the hook! Gabriel.
