I had a great day today... I fished the LWRCA area and noticed a midge hatch around 1pm. I tried a Parachute Adams with no luck and then swtiched to a #18 Zebra Midge and WOW! The fun was on. I missed several and had a good 10 or so on but landed 6. Sizes ranged from fingerlings to this almost 20" (best guess after measuring Rod when I got home). I did get some really good GOPRO video footage I will be working on later. Sorry for no close ups, I forgot my net and this guy put up a 9 min fight on my 7x so my main goal was quick pics and back in the water. I did get some cool video of him swimming off strong.
NOTE: I did notice several REDDS or leftover REDDS. This excites me. I fished about 70% from the bank or real close to the banks today making sure to not step on any REDDS. I did not see any fish on the beds, however mainly noticed them up close so I am sure the fish (if they were there) swam off.
Water was up a little from the recent snow melt and a bit murkey.......
Have a great day everyone....
Chris
