Streamers And More Streamers

 Nothing big yet but Dalt and I are starting to catch em on streamers. Got out for a quick blitz after work last week.

 Started slow but finally got one.

 Dalt contemplates sushi...

 Pretty Brown.

 Had a blast! 

And I can't wait for more.

One last shot...

Thanks,

Getting The Hang Of Streamers

 I have been fishing more and more with streamers and they seem to be working better by the day. I was always a bit intimidated by this technique but I am glad I have dove right in. 

Went out for a quick solo mission on Sunday and I had a blast. The time flew as I was spotting fish, getting into position and occasionally hooking a big Brown.  Heart racing stuff...

 Got this Guy on a nice stalk. This small stream is almost all sight fishing this time of year due to low water...

 Low water doesn't mean small fish though. I landed 4 but missed as many.

 The take on a streamer is awesome! Espeacially when you spot the fish and see a wake heading for your bug...

This was the fish of the day for me. Big ol Girl..

Can't wait to chase a few more in the coming weeks. 

Thanks,

Facials and Big Bows

 Grabbed a Whitty way too tightly today. Next thing I knew he flipped jizz across my face. Look closely at the sunglasses. ..

 Ha ha, yeah yeah, laugh it up!!

 Frisch, Dalt and I hit a favorite stretch tonight. It was good to get out and even better to get this GUY!

 She was fat and healthy.

 Land locked Steel Head as we like to joke.

 Just under 20"

 Beauty! 

 One more shot

 Man she was fat.

 Frisch having a go. Everyone was landing fish tonight. 

 Dalton checking his rig.

 Dried up summer plants made for a nice shot.

Got confronted by Rick and he laid out the law for us. What started as a somewhat heated conversation ended with us limping away from Rick's scorn. He was nice but it was clear we were in his realm and it's always better to "comply" and nod okay Rick... Enough said.

 Dalt battles a nice brown.

 

  It was getting dark but we kept working our way up stream. It got really cold and Frisch was starting to hurt with no waders.

 Frisch in a great run.

What a treat to be able to take off from work and be into great fish so close to home. I didn't see any Dragon Flies this late in the season but they will be back next season. wink wink.

Thanks,
