heavy rain on may 19th kept us from landing much, only got one small trout. the river was pretty muddy and tough to fish. we tried some spinnerbaits but was more of a day for hiding under cover than fishing haha. oh well, there’s always next time!

went out on the 15th, man it was pouring! barely managed to get one little fish, everything was soaked, couldn’t really keep my line out long with the wind too. just a rough day but still love being on the river!
partly cloudy on may 10th but the fish were on fire! ended up with 5 healthy rainbows all over 3lbs. used a red and white bobber with nightcrawlers, they just couldn’t resist! the wind was a bit much, but well worth it!
fished on may 9th, was pretty overcast but surprisingly good for catching. got a couple of nice cutthroats, about 2-3lbs each. tried some dry flies since the hatch was on, pulled a few good ones in, felt really good!
was out on the river on may 8th, caught a few small browns, nothing big but they were fun to catch. son got one around 3lbs on a johnson minnow, he was stoked! weather was perfect too, love those sunny days!
