Exclamation Fly cherry finally broke!!!

Caught a 5 inch Rainbow on my fly using a bead head parachute nymph worked like a beauty. Also caught a few more and lost a few but other than that it was a great day

Looks like both the trout and the fisherman got the bug. Congrats on your first of many.

Congrats.

First fish on the fly is special, might want to save the fly. Makes a nice keep sake for reminiscing in 60 years.

Congrats on your first fish caught on the fly. I still remember mine, but didn't keep the fly which I think is a good idea.

Just put one aside now. In 60 years you wont remember that it wasn't the actual fly that was used...
