After sleeping in thismorrning I was pumped to go fishing. But no spoons or spinners today,it was time to throw feathers. I at the time only have a 6 wt flyrod and I was sure if I hooked a ho the rod would hold up fine. I started with an egg pattern on a 9 ft leader and a micro shot to get it down! Wasn't more than 5 min I was into my first fish a scrappy 12 inch rainbow! Hooked 3 more fish 2 bows and a beauty around 15 inch cutthroat on a flyrod what a scrap took me into my backing! Even tho it was great catching trout that's not what I came there for! I switched over to an egg sucking leach and hooked even more 12 inch trout. Nice for a beginner fly guy! And just befor 10 this morning I got what I came for doing a fast retreave something smacked the egg sucking leach hard! After 4 huge runs and into my backing twice I finally tailed my first coho of the season looked to be around 3 pounds. After a quick revival off she swam. What a great feeling and a good morning of catching! CK
