Rainy Days and Wild Browns

Today dawned cloudy, damp and rainy. Plans were made to fish a wild trout stream with Mark from Fishing Small Streams. It was pouring rain when we arrived and Mark asked "Do we really want to do this"?  We agreed to tough it out and soon Mark was into a couple of fish. The rain abated and we moved upriver to another location. I finally got on board with two wild browns.
The first wild brown of the day

Another beauty
These two wild browns made my day complete. I had a few other hook ups that resulted in LDR s.  So in answer to Mark's original question "Do we really want to do this"? The answer is YES. We each had a few wild trout brought to hand, so in spite of the rain we had a successful day!

      That is yours truly in that photo back in the day, the fly road is the Eagle Claw Wright and McGill. You can no longer fish beneath the falls, now posted and private. Unfortunately.
