The rainbows were feeding aggressively yesterday. Caught 23 fish, some pushing 20”. All caught on spoons and CBs

Nice! Jealous.  I tried for lake 'bows once with my fly rod came up empty.  May try once more before ice in.  The ones you are holding look huge for sure (your net doesn't look small either).

Haha it’s not a small net. Most of these fish were thick in the 16-19” range.
