some wild brook trout...

D-nymph and i hit up a nice wild stream yesterday for a mid-day fish






















leaving beers stashed halfway up the stream= cool



not cool = a brand new RIO LT line breaking in the body section



i set on a riser about 45' downstream.... SNAP
line starts floating downstream... i pick it up and pull the little guy in



dnymph blood knotted while i sat on a rock an pouted



time to call RIO


randomly ran into silverkype and his buddies on our way out
hope the evening fished as well as our mid-day trip

    nice fish guys
     
    sure you didn't get the line caught between the spool and reel frame?
    kinda odd, line breaking.

    Al Linder pike set from the ankles... troots a mach3 into the bushes

    the line section was above the stripping guide an the time of break and there was no fray in the coating or core

    Here's the point and shoot version.  More water shots than fish shots, you can imagine why...

     

     
    Little brownie

     
    Freshly devoured dead ****.  It was still a little bit wet.

     
    bugs

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     
    Return to Yinzburgh.

    I really like that second pic KLH....are those mayflies in mid air, on the surface?  The subsurface one is neat as well....what kind of camera do you use if you don't mind me asking?  My Sony Cybershot is on its way out due to a previous soaking and I may be in the market for a new camera soon (lower pocket of the Goretex coat is not waterproof enough to wade over waist deep...duh) Either way really cool, all really nice pictures by you and D-nymph both.... except for Mr Snakey...me no like snakes....

    sorry but Dr. Trout takes better pics and writes better.

    Was this PA?

    It was nice talking with you again Kevin and nice to meet you D.
     
    We hiked back to near the parking and fished at dark.  Safe to say fishing was better mid-day than at dark.  A good number of bugs were popping but they weren't touching down.   Didn't see a rise at dark.
     
    I figured you'd take a picture of the run in your first "some stream shots" pic.  That was the last place I caught a fish that evening - I put the rod down, took my buddy's camera and loaded it up with pics from there.   

    My reports and advice are for everyone to enjoy, not just the paying customers.

    is this just a macro shot straight from the camera, or did you hype it up w. your editing program?

    Thanks, DT.  Yea, I tied it.  Didn't catch a fish with it on Sunday though.  It works, but not last weekend.  Soft hackles were best, partridge and orange.
