Went out for a quick evening session and the river didn’t disappoint. I was working a hatch and tied on a Blue Wing Olive dry—sure enough, it turned into the fly of the day. Ended up landing 8 fish in just about 2 hours, but the highlight was a beautiful 15 ½ inch brown that sipped the BWO like it was scripted.
There’s just something about watching a trout rise to a dry that never gets old—especially when it’s a brown with some good shoulders on it. Perfect mix of timing, presentation, and a little bit of luck.
Packed up right as the sun started dropping, still grinning about that fish. Nights like this are why I keep coming back to the river.
