Been hitting the Bow by the Carsland Wier for two mornings in a row & have been having a blast! Between the 2 days I have hooked 40 trout & landed 25; 10 of those were between 14-22" :happy0034: The biggest problem is you're fishing in about 3-4ft of water & there's lots of weeds around so the big boys feel the hook & jump 2 or 3 times then bury themselves in the weeds making it pretty hard to land them lol.

Saturday the BWO's were coming off pretty heavy mixed with Tricos, midges, & PMD's so it was a good dryfly day. This morning was COLD & wet which minimized the hatches but man were they ever hitting BWO wets & nymphs!!!
I only have a pic of the 22" brown cause I was by myself which makes the picture taking tough. Cell phone was wet too which made for poor pics.

Heading to the park with the family and jet boat for the long weekend. Hope for some sun to do some dry fly fishing but don't mind some nymphing! Thanks for the info!
