A few fish from the last couple trips of 2012. Looking forward to many more amazing trips already planned for 2013!
The first trip of 2013 was with Sam below the lake I fished last before winter hit. It started out slow but after a few fishy spots that went unrewarded, we discovered the combination and had a great day catching small bows and browns on a 50/50 split of surface and subsurface patterns. I was surprised at how many fish went for the Stoned-hopper...and in February! That pattern has performed time and time again. I fished a copper john for the first time in ages and it worked well for me.
Sam got into tying recently. This is his first fish on a fly he tied...
This little brownie had some freak-spot on it's mouth...a fungus maybe?
Sam caught a brown that looked like it had a close encounter with a bird...
