Lytle creek on the fly

[VIVID_FLY]

After driving up the freeway to what looked like DARK RAIN CLOUDS, I was surprised to see sunny but WINDY conditions at my first stop. The wind was blowing about 25 knots. I decided to take my 2.4M tenkara pole out from its container and rig up some 3 wt line with a hand twisted leader 2lb test with some 5x tippet and of course my go to Wulff fly pattern. Headed down to the stream or creek ... more like a river today but still searched out the eddies and pools. After walking and casting to no risers. I went downstream to the most obvious pool so far. First presentation my fly finds its demise to a waiting rainbow. I soft set and miss him. Next cast i presented in different area and pulled the fly underwater this time. SUCESS felt a bite and " FISH ON " no pics yet im balancing on a small rock like a SEA WORLD SEAL begging for fish snacks. Went down stream more and found some still water near the opposite shoreline. I love high sticking across fast water in those small motionless pools. FISH ON after the 2nd cast. PIC this one ... I forgot my fish box ..dammmm
