rainy day on the madison but still went for it! rod in hand, i finally hooked a big 20 in brown after a few hours. used a black woolly bugger, seemed to do the trick! got soaked, but it was worth it for that catch. also ran into a nice heron out there.
fishing the madison was a bust today, overcast n colder temps made it tough. only caught one tiny rainbow, like, 10 inches. we tried everything, even switched flies but nah.... gonna give it another go next week. maybe ill have better luck then.
took a chance on a lil rain today. went out on the madison n it was chillier than expected but we got a couple bites! lost a big one near the rocks, but caught a decent brook trout on a wet fly later. better than stayin in, that's for sure.
went to the river again, but it was overcast and kinda windy, felt cold early. threw a couple streamers with no luck at first, but finally found a spot and landed a nice 16 in brown! felt good to finally reel one in after a long wait.
