My Nephew Builds Bridges
The bridge is complete. They started last summer.
During the tear down of the old bridge they got
use to seeing a very annoyed trout running in and out
from under the bridge. Any kind of loud sound the trout
would spook out from under the bridge (IT'S HOME) and swim
upstream.
Every morning when they would start construction again the same
thing would happen. My nephew is related to me so when he described
the absolute monster under that bridge on a well traveled road that is frequented by many anglers to include worms guys...........
I took it with a grain of salt.
He came up this weekend and took me to that bridge. He took a hammer and hit the bridge railing on the downstream side of the bridge and had me stand at the upstream area where it always spooked out to.
This trout has lived under this bridge for quite some time to get as big as it is. It is NOT a fool either. This bridge gets hammered by spin and fly anglers. The worm crowd fishes right off the bridge in the summer. This large brown must have seen the entire kitchen sink and then some.
This one is going to be difficult to get a photo of.
Any suggestions on tactics and what to throw will be appreciated.
