ohmz138 Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 Thanks fellas. I wish I coulda stayed longer. The weekend I was down held the starting of some great fish. Saturday there was some in the 23 inch class as well. Sunday when I got the brown, I managed to hook into four other fish that were way bigger than that brown. One that was probably near double from what I hear. Dad got a better look at it. What a monster rainbow though right! Holy crap. Like every year, he has been torturing me daily with trophy fish pictures. Oh well, Dad you are the best fly fisherman I know, hands down. What dad you don't want to show the REALLY big fish picture? Hey guys, how does 36 INCHES sound!!!!!!!!!!!! :bouaaaaah:
ohmz138 Posted October 1, 2011 Posted October 1, 2011 MY GOODNESS! Those are some nice fish! Congrats on the awesome catch. You would think fish of that size would have wanted more a meal than a size 16 scud, lol. But I guess a bunch of scuds would make a meal. Just curious where you caught the fish. The background looks like it might be in front of the cable.....but not sure. My brother-in-law hooked one night fishing a while back down from cable a little and we never got the fish in. Once it was hooked it just kept taking line and finally came off. Thanks for asking. None of these fish were hooked there. They happened to be landed there though. After fighting a fish downstream, the shallow water right there serves an advantage if you can steer that fish into it. The more shallow and slower water can help you corral that fish and get it in the net. It is also a great place with the shallow grassy water to take a picture and get it back into the net to be revived quickly. I figured that would come up though. My few fish were hooked up maybe 30 yards or so down from outlet two, but there were big fish scattered everywhere, if you looked in the right spots.
