Managed to sneak the day off and play in gods country for the day..... The morning started off wet with a heavy down pour but once I made my way up river the rain had eased off and it turned out nice.

Started to drift the shore looking for the tell tale signs of cuttys on the hunt. Wasn't too long before I spotted them. first 1/2 hour nothing then all of sudden all hell breaks loose behind my boat. A large school of fresh fish are on the hunt and I'm the only one around. YEEE HAAAA...... First cast and WHAMM one hits my muddler, the fish erupts out of the water and starts to run. After a short fight I un-hook the little wild fish and away it swims. The fish are still hunting fry behind my boat so again I cast too them and WHAMM a second fish hits me, after another short fight I un-button him and let this hatchery fish swim away. In the span of 2 hours I hit and hooked half a dozen fish, the biggest fish was the last one I hooked this morning, a nice fat 16" hatchery. This one came home with me as my dinner guest for tonight. ;D

Re: Cutthroat

yaa these little guys can be very addicting Ribby. I wish the river was a bit higher, still lots of redds just out of the reach of the water......

Re: Cutthroat

Addicting...absolutely... :thumbup: Hunting, watching, waiting...seeing a fish boil, then another...madly casting just ahead of the fish, then that sudden jarring take as they slam the fly...quite the rush!!!
Love those fish...!

The lake was really low as well...real soon now though we'll start to see the freshet...

:cheers:

I stated this was a river, it was Ribwart that was fishing the lake. Next weekend I will make the haul up the lake
