thought today was gonna be great but the weather turned on us! started with sunshine but ended up cloudy and windy. still hooked into a decent rainbow, about 17 inches but then the thunder rolled in and we had to pack up. fishing's all about the adventure, right?

got out to gunnison for a quick trip and man it was hot! caught a couple small ones but nothing over 14 inches. wind was crazy tho, almost blew my hat away! still nice to do some casting and enjoy the river vibes.
super sunny morning, hit the river around 9am with a couple buddies. used dry flies and caught a couple nice cutthroats, like 16 inches each! the water was clear, which made it easier to spot them. had a blast, could fish all day!
cloudy day today, kinda chilly too, but still managed to pull a few out. 3 small rainbows all under 15 inches. used fly rod with some nymphs, but the bite was pretty light. windy too so it made casting tricky. still feel lucky to get out!
what a beautiful sunny day on the gunnison! i went out solo and caught 5 browns! biggest one was like 20 inches, they were hitting on a brown colored crankbait. got some sunburn but man it was worth it, felt so good to be out there!
