Went out saturday and sunday fishing a small river i like. Saturday was spent primarily flyfishing for char and resident rainbows, mostly indicator and bead. Although i did bring my switch rod to do some spey casting. I did get one massive tight line grab right in the middle of the swing, after a few headshakes a small chinook busted the surface and my fly popped out of its mouth, ohh well. We ended up catching 3 bull trout up to 22" and several rainbows to about 14" on the beads.


Next day another friend and i got out, we took an entirely different approach, mostly focusing on centerpinning , spoons, and twitching jigs, buddy caught a whopper cutty, probably 20"+ cutty, i landed a 18" cutty, a small summer run steelhead, a chinook and an even year pink salmon , aswell as some small tiddler rainbows for both of us. Needless to say, it was a pretty decent couple days on the river.

Thank you JonB!
I've got to say - that last pic, of the area you were in - is certainly worthy of a several hour daydream. Maybe even in loop form. For days, weeks, months even.
Tight lines!

Haha lol, i think my entire game has improved since the early days lol. Its what ive always dreamed of as an anglet up here. Crisp mountain air, rolling fog along the hillsides, rivers full of willing fish and nary an angler to be found. Its magical.
