Was out on the East Branch yesterday and Hooked into this beast. He took a bead head caddis emerger trailed off caddis dry. A nice hen of almost 5 pounds. Lots of fun on a 5 weightView attachment 9131
They are a blast. Pods of six or seven were playing in the current right in front of my feet Friday afternoon on the main stem. Couldn't get them to take.
Right or wrong: for the first 30 seconds you thought you had an enormous rainbow on... that's been my experience practically every time.

Were you near Shinhopple when you caught her? I like that part of the river.
Trouser Trout
Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
What kind of fish is that, we call them whitefish.

It's a river tarpon and they are a hard fighting gamefish. DLUVER went for trout and only caught a sunburn.

catching shad when you are going for trout is always a blast since you are not expecting it. They taste better too. Good catch Mac! I bet that fish kicked your butt.

Say what you want , I can tell you one thing Paul had his hands full with that nice buck on a 5wt and 5x tippet . That thing took him right into the backing in a split second they are true sport on a fly rod. If you are up there and there is nothing going on they are not to hard to catch , just tye on a bugger and toss it in front of the pod and strip away they attack a fly with a vengeance and are hard fighters . A great way to fill the void when there is no dry fly action!

They are a wily gamefish.
