That just happens to be my biggest rainbow trout. He was a beefy boy. Lots of chases, including some from very big browns, and lots of fun. The hit from that bow was as solid and powerful and any. A good day on the water.

Salmon River Streamer Slam
Today I fished the Salmon with David Gallipoli. We had some luck this time! Though there were bugs hatching, including caddis and a few different smattering of mayfly, throwing big stuff and getting it down on the bottom was the way to get fish in the cold, cold water. And it was big streamers that pulled the fish off the bottom today. I had a three fish trout slam: a small brooky, a decent brown, and a big rainbow. David also caught one salmon, if a tiger had found one of our flies we would have had every Salmon River salmonid possible.
