TR through the weekend.

Back at my favorite fishery...  Wife and some friends of ours made it down for a kid free weekend... Hoping to get as much time fishing in as possible, but still keep the women happy lol.  

Will likely be fishing nights again, but may swing a day shift on Sunday.

I'll drop updates here as we go!

First fish is hardly ever a trout...  Lol.

So my buddy is down here for the first time ever trout fishing.  We started out down between outlet 1 and the cable and it was slow...

Went down to rebar and it was slow... 

Back up past outlet 2 and it was game on.  He was landing bow after bow on the stick baits.

I started hitting them on an orange SJW, but then after watching him tear it up, I headed to the car to get my stick gear.  Catching some nice fiesty ones the biggest right at 16inches

We head back down and his bait gets absolutely smoked.  First time down here and he lands a nice 21.5 bow.  Fish of the night for sure and a beautiful male.

Done for the night now, we'll be back at it tomorrow.

We had a few hours to kill this afternoon so I took my buddy down and tried to teach him how to fly fish.  Kind of the blind leading the blind lol, he got skunked, but I picked up a few on top water. One on a beetle, another on a Hopper down at outlet 1.

Congrats on a successful night and follow up trip today! Glad that your buddy caught a really nice rainbow. Not a bad PB on your first trout fishing trip☺! Can't wait to see what you catch tonight.

Finally a brownie. First one of the weekend

The top water bite in the flat water past outlet 2 is on fire tonight.  I'm over 20 fish already with a few real solid bows.  They are just crushing a foam beetle pattern in the moon light... Def a ton of fun

Bigger beetle bigger fish.
