On The Board 2017

Finally got on the board for 2017. About midday fished a stream that holds wild browns. The water was up and a bit off color from the previous days rain. I was using my go to soft hackle, the BHPTSH, size 16, While fishing a nice rocky run a gorgeous wild brown pounced on the PT.
First of the new year.

A beautiful wild brown

    Had to get out yesterday and take advantage of the warmer weather. Looks like winter is back for a few days!
