Saturday, we again got out early and fished left of 3 Dollar Bridge close to the second stairs. Standing on the bank, i cast in my salmonfly and nymph and a fish grabbed it immediately but I didn’t hook it. I cast again and I see the fish up against 2 rocks come up for it but didn’t grab. I then drifted it over and over and as the salmonfly sank slightly, I see the fish make a grab for it. What a thrill!
Afternoon is super hot and we stay in then go for a drive, sit out the wind and sprinkles then head to Raynald’s bridge. I start where we were the first night, no luck. Then caddis are flying everywhere and Ray finds a spot far down the trail where the waves calm to a slow area. What a thrilling night.
I catch one, landing it – my reel falls off. We finally get it in the net with photo. I catch another that Ray nets. Then I catch one that jumps in the air twice and breaks off. Next I land one and net it myself. One more gets away. Then Ray helps me net one that I land; it has a bum jaw. 6 in one night, a great evening (4 landed, 4 hooked)
