Well my itch for monster trout finally got the better of me and I headed up to the 'loops on the weekend for a little rainbow fishing. Our company is building up there and my fishing buddy Josh is working up there. As a result we have some free accomadation for the next little while.
I managed to slide out of work inconspicuously at about 1 so I made it up to the lake for alittle evening fishing. It wasn't long before Josh found out they were killing scuds and he landed this beautiful blackwater rainbow.
I know what you're thinking. He's a good looking guy. :happy:
I then followed with this chunky triploid before we packed it in for the night.
Then we :beerchug: and got :drunk:
Two more days out on the water in beautiful spring weather was just what I needed. We had many more chunky rainbows, (all released) and I had three memorable break-offs while battling some aforementioned MONSTERS. I'll get em next time. Why is it I always hook my biggest fish when I'm heading in to take a leak? :wallbash: Many smiles and bent rods and I can't wait til the weekend.
My only regret is that I couldn't figure out what flies these guys were hitting.
