Had a good afternoon on the last day of winter! Water was in mid 60’s incoming and pretty clear! Some of the nicest trout I have seen in a good little while! These days make the skunk days completely worth it in my opinion!
Look how healthy this dude was! Drumming in my hand!
Then a few nice spottail to boot!

Thanks Optiker!
BigT, lets go!
Yea Hoppy, I think all but 2 were drumming! Must have found a small school of brothers and some were up to just over 20". Only caught one that was short although they all swam away and went back!
Dorado, you know what I’m sayin!

Stump, if you had a buck over 20" thats a very rare fish! Equivalent to probably a 7 lb female in terms of age and rarity.
