Default Leeches & Chironies

A couple pics from the other night. JR had a fat fish netted that ate a Chromie before I even got my line wet. He continued to kick my butt for over an hour on the same pattern. I was too stubborn to change my leech up. Thankfully I was fortunate enough not to go home stinky. Enjoy.

Healthy looking fish. Glad to hear the boy is teaching you the finer things of the fly rod

Default More Leeches

Had a chance to get out for a couple hours over the weekend. Suspending a leech off a ledge was very productive. A few pictures of a couple of the nicer fish. Both had lots of energy going aerial several times, taking sweet runs and threatening backing. Lots of fun. Enjoy.
