Nice rainbow yesterday

[Phil Lilley]

Albert Kerr caught this 24 inch 8.5 lb rainbow yesterday while drifting up below the dam. Caught it on a cerise San Juan Worm. Released. 

Fishing with his wife and son, they told me they caught multiple 20-inch-plus rainbows the day before.

Look at the belly on that fish. that is a great fish Albert. Big rainbows seem harder and harder to come by these days.

The Kerr's are avid fly fishers from buyou country. They drive up and fish weekends I bet 20 times a year. When they took off Saturday about 10 am I said it may be tough- high sun and little wind. When they returned they reported it was one of their best days catching multiple big rainbows over 20 inches. I don't what else they caught Sunday beside this trophy.

Wow, the girth on some of these fish lately has been crazy!  Big ol slab right there.  Great fish indeed.
