They do Exist

And, yes, they can be caught as well. Even with a little nymph. The water was simply on fire and off the chain this weekend.

He gave my 7'6" 5wt a work out it has never seen. I am sure glad I didn't take my friend's 2wt with me or I might have owed him a new rod!

NICE! Good for you. I guess all the hard work you have put in is paying off. Did you catch numbers it, sure sounded like it.

Thanks, Bill! I brought more than 15 to hand. I honestly lost count because the lunker was the first catch and I was floating in the clouds after that. It was a ridiculous couple of hours to say the least. Conditions were ideal, pools and riffles were much deeper and wider, creating more habitat for the fish to spread out more. Usually I will catch at least two small fish per hole or run and the occasional larger fish, but his time it was more like 3 or 4 per, and what surprised me was most were 6-7 inches each. I typically fish a section that takes me about 4 hours to fish including walking back to the car and I only fished half of it, hoping that leaving some untouched territory would help someone else out. Hopefully someone was able to take advantage of it.
