Got out wends. with a work buddy who moonlights as a wildlife photographer. Waded upstream(usual spots) about 2 miles. River was super active- tons of small minnows/fish- trout were feasting on them. Ended up landing 15 rainbows(prob 5 with some size- topping out around 15, and then rest cookie cutters) 3 browns (1 pictured, one maybe 5in but angry, and a 12 who slipped up before he deholstered his dslr. Also sat on a rock and watched some bows crush top water nymphs and other bugs under a tree. Bruce had some issues with depth but hit one solid one(his first on the Fly) and had a blast watching the bows check out his flys. Water was still super cold and clear. This was before the big front on Friday.
