Had to drown my sorrows after I had my taxes done.So I hiked into a lake in Lewis County,cold rainy about the same as getting taxes done.The lake was calm which was real nice,hard to cast a fly in the wind,the fish were somewhat co-operating,managed 3 to the net(2)rainbow (1)cutthroat.All were easy 17”,looked real healthy firm and a thick body.Had to quit after 4hours,getting cold and could not stop shaking,had to hurry up and pack,get back on the trail to warm up.Only had one hit on choronomids.Fish caught on dragon fly nymph.
Nice looking fish. Happy for you to be able to get out and connect with some nice fish.
Great pics and nice fish.. How far of a hike with the fat cat?
