And the Mystery Continues...




Saturday I took two guys over to a river we call Mystery. The fishing was amazing. Could not get any better amazing! We spent the morning throwing big nasty streamers. Wes had the browns on lock down. He crushed them. He couldn't keep them off of his line. By lunch he had caught 8 fish over 18 inches and several in the 23-24 inch range. He caught 3 fish in 5 casts. It was something I had never seen. Unfortunately Steve's mojo wasn't quite right and could not get them to bite. Wes also caught a walleye and a large mouth. After lunch we did some nymph fishing and Steve crushed some fat and sassy rainbows. In my mind there is nothing cooler than throwing a 2 inch fly and seeing a big gold swirl come out from the shadows and smash it. They attack with such ferociousness its unreal. It truly is a rush to see these big predators in action. Not all streamer fishing days can be productive, but this one was truly amazing for us.
