Meet up with Mike(mth1997) and my dad on Friday to do some more exploring and maybe catch a golden or 2. We started fishing early Sat. morning and right away my dad hooks up first. I didnt snap a pic but i think my dad has one.
I was next to land a little guy.
Here is Mike fighting his first golden. I think Mike has a good picture of it.
This little section had a lot of fish in it. I farmed 2 fish and had at least 10 rises before hooking in to a little guy.
My Dad working a section running through a meadow.
After catching a few goldens each we decided to check out some new water. Fishing was kind of slow but Mike and my dad both got a little brown each. Here is the little guy Mike hooked.
I think Mike was trying to hook me.
After a lot of hiking and little fish we decided to try a new spot during the evening hatch. I must have watched at least 50 rises in less then a half hour. The fish were hungry and hitting like crazy. These fish would rise to your fly 4 or 5 times before getting smart. I was just sight fishing them. Wait till i see a rise and then throw my fly in the same spot and get hit. Parachute adams were the ticket for the evening hatch.
I sat and watched this guy nail bug after bug non stop for about 5 mins before i decided to cast to him. I had 3 missed hook sets on him before finally hooking him.
Little guy my dad got just as it got dark.
We fished for about a hour this morning before heading back home. Both Mike and my dad got a few more. I got the skunk today. Total count 9 goldens for me. I think my dad ended up with 11 or 12 goldens and a little brown and I think Mike ended up with 8 or 9 goldens and a little brown. All my fish were caught on a #16 parachute adams. Not sure what Mike and my dad were using. Great trip with great scenery and great fishing. I think Mike has more pictures to add.
