I caught a 15" brown (which I initially mistook for a log, and fought like hell once it started moving) and two (13" and 14") rainbows
Nice catch! What'd ya catch the brown on??
About a third of a nightcrawler.
Great. Just curious, do you "drift" your bait through likely riffles, runs, holes, etc? If so, do you use a float or tight line so you can feel the take? Or do you cast and let the bait sit on bottom?
Nice work Jim. Curious how you ended up trying that river or stretch of river.
I have also heard lots of good things about the Millers River - - although, as I recall, the couple of times that I tried (half-heartedly) fishing it myself, I did not have any action.
Are there wild trout there or just implants?
My Dad used to take me fishing on the Sawmill back in the 1980's, so it has fond memories for me - - I caught my PB tiger trout there - - even though I have not done really well there for years (at least not till yesterday).I also tend to "fall into a rut" in terms of fishing "the same old" spots - - so every once in a while I try to mix things up.I have also heard lots of good things about the Millers River - - although, as I recall, the couple of times that I tried (half-heartedly) fishing it myself, I did not have any action.
Good stuff Jim. Sadly my Dad wasn't into fishing. He liked golfing too much to take up fishing. Some days I'm not sure which one is more frustrating.
