niveker 0 Report post Posted May 26, 2020 Finally got enough free time for some trout fishing yesterday at the local tail water. A good number of small and two good sized brookies, a number of strong Browns, and one Rainbow that was too impatient for a photo. All caught on a fox squirrel nymph.

TIER 0 Report post Posted May 26, 2020 I went grayling fishing at the chatnika river and caught 3 grayling. Btw the river was flooding. I didn't get a picture of one, though. Here's the biggest one of the day. Both caught on a san juan worm with a gold bead. I would have gotten this to you guys sooner if our vehicle didn't break down.

niveker 0 Report post Posted May 26, 2020 Sorry to hear about your transportation, Tier. Nice fish though. Do you keep or release the grayling? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIER 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2020 I release all grayling. I am a sport fisherman. And I wanted those grayling to grow up a bit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
niveker 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2020 Good on you Tier, and those are on the small side. I traveled and lived up there for a while, and ate as many of them that I could, stream-side. Glad to see I didn't make a dent in the population. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peartree 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2020 Sampling of an hours worth of fishing. 8 bass, 6 bluegill. Love how these bluegill fight twice as hard as the bass. All on a sinking spider. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2020 I'm envious of your pond, Peartree. I only caught two this morning, before the sound of thunder warned me to get out of the water. Got video, but I'm going to wait until I get a few more fish before posting it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
