Default Rainy Day Brown

water is on the rise in the Bow. lots of debris coming down and low visibility. i did manage a nice brown in the rain this afternoon. it made the couple hours i fished worth the time in the water.

thanks. one of the brightest colored Browns I’ve landed for sure. unfortunately the pics don’t justify how beautiful the fish really was. low light. 6wt 9’ rod fishing a gold BH black stone and a wire worm. This fish hit the worm, they like eating the weight on rainy days…………….
