I'm new to fly fishing, just started this year and this is my second year fishing in Colorado in general. I caught 165 fish last season even after starting in August. While I was using a ultralight spinning rod then, nothing ever was worth marking as my personal best. So this catch shocked me due to the size of the fish, the location I caught it, the fight, and how well the hook set was.
Makes me feel so blessed to have such amazing waters to fish.
