Falling Springs, 08/04/23

So good to see my buddy Mike again from VA. We fished together almost a year ago and he has been reading my awesome stream reports and he wanted in the action. He met me and we fished from 8AM until 11:30. It was calm, overcast and mid 70’s. The water was clear, 59 and plenty of surface activity. I set up his rod with SA Absolute Trout 6X tippet and fished several terrestrials all morning. I did not take long and the net was filled with a small rainbow. It that short amount of time we were on the water netted another 9 browns, 1 of which was a good sized, heavy, mid-teen brown. Also had a few missed and a nice 16 or so inch trout toss the fly. What a great morning with an awesome guy! Still have plenty of time for some morning summer fly fishing.
