Sunny, brisk, and full of rainbows!

[Simms]

Good afternoon all,

Spent the better part of my day fishing a local stream. Was a bit nipply out when I clicked on my truck from my bedroom window, and the wind was HOWLING! Thought today might be better spent in front of the tube, however it WAS sunny out so i opted to fish anyway, despite the gail force winds.

Got to the spot, rigged up and head down to the river. First cast a nice 'bow came up for my strike indicator. Damn, should have put a stimulator on!

WHACK, got the first 14-15'' 'bow on a REALY buggy hares ear.

I then proceeded to land a handful more, catching them on everthing from a wooly bugger to a caddis pupa.

Depsite the chilly 49 degree water, the fish were extremely active and were full of piss and vinegar! Almost every fish took drag!

As I landed the 4th fish, my camera decided to take a swim!!! AHHHH! So, that was the end of the picture taking! And msot likely my camera. Have not turned it on yet.

ALL were bows except one rogue brookie.

Enjoy the pics! I will be out tommorow as well! Heading back up in the area of the E.B. of the Swift. cell is 862-268-0321 if you want to meet up. Text me, I have free texting.

TIGHT LINES!

Hey Simms it turns out that it's too long of a drive for me because it will interfere my "family issues". I'M PISSED.:down: Have to opt for a local stream like the Wood River or something else in my area. Unless we can find a spot closer to RI, I think we're just gonna have to plan for another time. Thursday is a possibility for me. If we can't find a closer spot towards RI, let me know how you did and I'll do the same.

What state was this in? The brookie looks big. I am guessing the river is stocked, but wanted to ask before I concluded that they are stockies.

I know they are stocked tho. Just obvious. But big fish.

What kind of reel is that? Looks awesome.

Thanks bud. Its a GLoomis Cross Current. I have always had ROSS evolution reels, however I decided to give this line a try. Bought the 3wt edition and 6wt. I love them. Drags are great, large arbor and the 6wt handles chrome domes with ease. They are a reel worth checking out.

Golden Beetle, fish were caught in Mass.

Nice Job but whats up with that Mutant Rainbows lower jaw. The thing looks like a cross breed between a Bow and an Oscar Fish! One thing I hate is to see a hatchery fish with genetic issues released to a nice river. It's a problem just waiting to explode.......:beingsick:
Take care of that leg dude.....
