This confused the shit outta me. I went to take my hook out of this fish to release him but my flies were both free. He had swallowed one fly from a previous catch. You can see the line coming out of his mouth (not mine) which goes under his body to the algae covered fly to his left (not mine). I could see the fly he swallowed but no chance of getting it out so I snipped the line off best I could and set him free. I'm not sure if I actually got him to eat my fly or if I hooked the line he was carrying around with him. Hard to say if this makes him lucky of unlucky but hopefully he gets to breed before he dies.
