Default Late Fall Brow Trout

I went to the Bow River after a Meeting at work for an hour and a bit. My hook-up average wasn't bad but I was only 1 for three on landing them. Here's the Brown trout of the day:



And here's the Video:

I definitely plan on it Rick. I find it's one of the best time of the year to fish. Larger fish need to eat more than smaller fish, so the chances of larger trout on the line are very good, and, there is usually no one else on the water so you get to have the entire River to yourself.

Thanks, That one is my Redington Redfly 2. It's excellent for nymphing on the bow! It's graphite but it kinda looks like a cane rod in that shot doesn't it?

Thanks guys

Coniferous,
There is ice on some of the edges outside of town but it's still very good for wading...but dress warm, I use battery operated socks, they work great!
