Nice day on the river

That fish in the net was an 18 inch cutbow. Too pretty to eat.

The rainbows and the the nice big brown on the other hand......

Pete,

All on flies. Right now I am strictly nymph fishing. It has been deadly. I'm starting to understand what type of water to look for. This particular spot looked like a feeding conveyor belt. I knew they had to be there. Once I figured out the depth it was game on. They were stacked in there. I caught about twenty fish. I finally just left.

I need to take a pic at what some of these good pockets look like.

I fly fished last year in mass with a flyrod, going after the stocked fish. I had some good luck. But had I known then what I know now from my experiences on the Yellowstone and some of the mountain creeks I have hit...... I would have pulled a lot more fish out!

I can't put into words how much fun I am having with a flyrod. Probably helps to be living in one of the best places on the planet to do it.
