today was all about the mist! couldn't see much but the fish were biting. hooked up a super nice brookie, around 16 inches. used a nymph rig, it was working great. misty mornings are just magical and totally worth it for the catch!

another cloudy day but the fish were hungry! got lucky and hooked a 20 inch rainbow, was so stoked! used a light tackle, nothing fancy. the wind picked up towards the evening, though, but what a blast fishing with my buddies. can't wait to go back!

fished under overcast skies today and it was hot! water temp was nice too. caught a bunch of small guys but one was a solid 18 inches, fought like a champ! used a dry fly, they just couldn’t resist it. good times with friends!

cloudy day but pretty good fishing overall! landed 3 nice rainbows, 14 to 17 inches. used some yarn flies, they were biting pretty good. chilling at the riverside, could’ve stayed for hours if it wasn’t for the wind. great way to spend the morning!

man, today was wild with the heavy rain, ended up soaked to the bone. caught one fish, a small brookie. used my trusty fly rod but honestly, it was kinda slow. had to pack it in early 'cause the weather just wouldn't let up. guess I'll try again next time!
