    Those are some good looking fish Dirty! If it wasn't for the fact that I've got the salmon fever real bad I'd be hitting up the river for some of those trout as well, it looks like the flows are just perfect.

    Good job! Nice to be rewarded with exploring. I know I have a blast when it all comes together.

    Glad to see you've been rewarded for your efforts. Those fish are beautifully colored, truly nice fish.

    River bling on the upper AR

    Lately I've been trying to fish different spots and have been pleasantly rewarded each time! When the water was low, I ventured on some private property - using the 4ft rule - near the 49 bridge on the south fork and caught 8-9 nice fighting rainbows after class last Thursday. Then on Sunday I caught 25 (mostly small) and found one of my favorite spots yet! I hooked into my biggest rainbow yet; if it weren't for the silver flash I would've thought it was a monster squaw or smallie. Peeled out line for five seconds and ripped my leader off! :/ I will be back and I will get my hook back haha A nice dad and his two sons gave me a ride back and the youngest caught 5 rainbows, with a 17 incher being the biggest. Fished the south fork today and caught 12-14 trout - mostly pan size with one bigger fish as the highlight. Out of the three outings, only had to keep 7 fish total!

    Now for the good stuff



    "River bling"


    Perfect specimen
