Recently I was lucky enough to find the time to go fishing again. It sure is tough trying to keep up with my fly fishing addiction with a toddler and newborn at home. It had been more than a month since my last fishing day. I left for the day with my favorite fishing partner (Foxy) not knowing where exactly I would fish but decided to try the Little Truckee first. I caught my first fish after just 15 minutes on the water on a brown San Juan worm. The next fish came on a black micro mayfly. Both fish were Brown trout between 16 and 18 inches long. Other than those two fish the day was pretty slow. I am not complaining though, the L. Truckee is a really tough place to fish, you have to really know what your doing. So I feel pretty good about the two fish. I did see a monster brown which was at least 26 inches but could not convince him to take my fly. The water was extremely low and the fish were super spooky. I managed to spook several large (20"+) browns throughout the day.
Second brown. Check out the micro mayfly in his upper lip.
