Title: Green Timbers Lake, July 12th 2010
Post by: Blackgivesway2blue on July 12, 2010, 02:58:34 PM
Tried my luck with the Fly Rod at Green Timbers today, hooked into 1rainbow at 11:30ish, about 14inches, but he spat the hook after about 5seconds.  The fly that got the bite was a Black and Red micro leech with an orange bead head.  That was also the very first fish ive ever hookd into on the fly  ;D It was Very windy out there today, actually when i was leaving i was walking down the trail, stopped to call my mom to tell her i was coming home, and a tree fell and landed right in front of me  :-\ good thing i stopped where i did to call her.

Congratulations on your first (of many more) fly hooked fish. How did it compare to your other methods?

  I stand corrected, your first fly hooked trout. And I agree there is nothing better than fighting a fish with virtually no weight on your line, you feel everything.
