    Nice fish. 22 inches?
    The river looks like its holding its own.
    Now, tell me you caught it sipping 24 midges against the opposite bank in a calm slot next to a swirling eddy.

    dano,
      That thing in it's mouth looks a leeettle bigger than a #24  I'd say #16 at least; soft hackle peacock.  But that's just a guess.

    Pretty close to that. I caught it about 6 foot off the opposite bank, in a deeper channel, sipping #10 wooly buggers.

    After remeasuring some points on my fly rod, the best I can get is 19 inches for him.

    Here's a couple of pictures of the East Walker and a few of Hot Creek.
