The Underground Catches Little Fish: Aims High Tomorrow

It’s Saturday evening; back from the Upper Sacramento River Exchange’s annual fundraiser, I’ve got just enough time to post a quick pic from today’s fishing trip before getting the gear ready for tomorrow’s:

A little rainbow trout. Cute, eh?

I put in a couple hours on a small, small stream, and caught small, small trout (biggest was 7 inches).

This stream’s still running a little high, so I went scouting. Turns out the road to Gumboot Lake is clear, and the lake’s ice-free. Looks like it’s been that way for a while.

The backcountry’s opening up my friends, and tomorrow’s attempt at a high altitude stream promises much — both in trout or adventure.

See you way up high, Tom Chandler.

    It is tiny, but when you fish it with a #3 rod and dry flies, it is a worthy opponent.

    Regards.
