Wednesday, Aug 8, 2012Quote(s) of the Day: "Losing that fish is going to haunt me dreams for a while."
This is the biggest fish I have ever caught!
Fishing Highlights:
The fish were eating non-stop all day. The morning started out hot and carried through to the end. Some monsters hooked and fought with a couple of them making it to the net. We played one of the biggest browns I have seen in a few years, but he managed to slip away just before reaching the net. Chris' big rainbow
The fishing is fantastic.
Clear skies and 60+ degree weather. The water temperature was between 52-55 degrees and Crystal Clear.
