Persistence Pays Off

[bwcballer10]

Walked in at Frisco line trail bridge first thing Friday morning. River was rolling and muddy which was to be expected of course. I walked as far down river as you can and never even got a bite. I assumed the river hadn't been muddy long enough for the fish to get used to it. So while I was there I figured I would wade slagle from the gravel road to the mouth of the creek and see if they were stacked up at the mudline. 4th or 5th cast I hook something big that breaks me off but that was the only bite I got. So at this point i am pretty bummed because I assume the skunk is happening. I make the long walk back to the truck. Before I take off for the house I decided to try the creek below Taylor. Get there and try for a few minutes, still zero bites. "Yep the water is too muddy but I'll give the mud bank above the creek a shot". I have caught lots of fish there in the past. So my 3rd cast i hook a nice female white. Proceed to catch some nice ones before the rain started. Once the rain started the bite stopped. I had on the waders and raincoat so I fished for 30 minutes or so in the rain, never got another bite. Finished with 13 keepers and 10 dinks.
