Spring is here

The weather was too good this past weekend not to get out on the water, even if the water was higher than I would like. Managed a few small cutthroat yesterday in the afternoon. Looking forward to getting out some more and hopefully having better luck.

Metolius

Made an overnight trip this week to the Metolius. It was rather chilly at night, but there were some periods during the day when the weather was perfect. The fish were quite active, but didn't seem to be looking up. I had good success nymphing and even hooked a big bull trout momentarily. He decided to get back at me by attacking the fish at the end of my line minutes later. The biggest fish of the trip was caught "properly" on a dry fly. That was a good way to end the short trip. I drove home in a downpour. Looks like the rivers will be in flood mode for a while around her, but that's okay since school is starting back up so I'll be short on time
