Hit the water at 9:30am. Overcast skies. Water clear and 62 degrees.
Rob started with caddis and ended with nymphs.
Between the two of us we caught about 60 browns.

no fishing today....hiked with wife
Returned for the second time chasing a couple bigs that eluded me in early March. I hit the water at 11:30am. Overcast and 64 when I began. The water was very dirty still. I drove all the way there so I was going to fish.
I was on the water for over an hour before I scored my first trout here. I actually thought about turning around after an hour. Center of above photo there is a tiny spring feeding in and that is where I caught my first little. Then the cows went in the water upstream and made it filthy. I sat down for 20 minutes and let it clear.
After this hole the waterway went into the woods and weeds to my chest. It was hard sledding for a while.
The fishing picked up and I was glad I did not turn around.
I have been babying my right hand as of late. Injured my thumb trying to do some carpentry. Hooked up on a big one that I needed to use force to turn away from submerged logs. My thumb screamed at me as I exerted pressure on the hooked jawed male.
I got to use my net today. Second biggest trout of the year.
Did not measure it. It was at least 20 inches and them some. Stopped fish at 4:30pm. 77 degrees and partly sunny 29 browns to hand total. Lost a couple more at shore that were photo worthy. Had to put on 2 kinds of bug spray three times to be able to tolerate the deer flies and gnats.

When you arise in the morning, think of what a
precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think,
to enjoy, to love.

Fished for 2 hours. 23 browns to hand.
Weather around here too warm to chase trout so a 12 spot skimmer female dragonfly was my photo subject today.
