It had been awhile since my last time on the water, and with the sunshine I just had to wet a line. I’m glad I did. Not only was it a beautiful day but the trout and salmon were very cooperative too. Lots of rainbows, several small salmon but a few in the 15″+ range. My best fish was a gorgeous brook trout about 2+lbs.

Being by myself I tried to take a picture but that just didn’t work. After I released her I took this shot as she rested. I think it’s a pretty cool shot. Interesting how the water distorts things but the brook trout features are still visible. There were several different mayflies coming off and tons of Caddis around but I picked up everything on a non-weighted Pheasant Tail, Para Adams and Snowshoe BWO.

OMR just returned from the Andro, and had another good day nymphing. Tomorrow he’ll be on the Connecticut, and me, I think I’ll going fishing again.
