Was recently away on some vacation days, managed to fight and land three of four fish battled.Got to the river on day one and the water was stained, tied on one of my bucktail streamers and was working some of the pools, was able to fool a couple of the browns oh just awesome to see the golden flash role and smash the streamer .Second day water had cleared up quite a bit so was a little tougher with the streamer, but day two produced one brown kind of by accident, was tangled up a bit and working on sorting that out whille my streamer was hanging near to the river edge and got smashed, crazy where some of the fish are hangin.Day two also produced my largest fish of the trip although i was not able to land that beauty what a fight on the 4weight setup, wow when they get in the current they feel that much stronger and bigger.Days three and four didn't produce any fish or bent rods but had the pleasur of seeing a couple of smaller fish role on my fly but not fully committed to smashing it.Got to do a bunch of hiking,sight seeing and nature observing while out with the rod.Weather was great not to warm not to cold,last couple of days the sun was really heating up and humidity was creeping in though.Had some of the usally goofs, trips, slips,snags in river and out,but only lost one streamer.Again just recently started tying some streamers so really neat to get some action on some i tied up.Here are some pics
