netboy Posted June 25, 2019 Posted June 25, 2019 Took the wife to the dam this morning to take advantage of a day of true minimum flow (which we may not see again for some time). Sulphurs were right on cue and started at 9am. We fished a very shallow area where you could see the trout cruising around and taking the bugs. It was mostly sightcasting with lots of lookers and quite a few takers. I lost a big brown that I would estimate was around 24". I saw him cruising and placed the fly about a foot in front of him and he came up and took it. He made a couple of jumps and then the hook pulled out. Here's a few pics... Check out the coloration of the adipose fin on the brown. I have never seen the bright red tip like that. Also a couple of nice rainbows. We estimated around 60-70 caught this morning, all on dries. This post has been promoted to an article snagged in outlet 3, BilletHead, JestersHK and 4 others 7

JestersHK Posted June 26, 2019 Posted June 26, 2019 That is wild looking there on its fin. Glad you and the Mrs. Put a whacking on em. You def are living right and have them figured out. I may need to come see ya in August so you can give me some Jedi training on the long rod before I go to CO lol. That's if you are taking on apprentice padawans. Beautiful fish as usual. Thanks for sharing.
