Monday morning it was another cool beautiful morning in the Ozarks. Gary, a Deputy Sheriff, came all the way from the suburbs of Denver to fish with me on our world famous trout stream. Fishing was great! We had a blast. We had tons to talk about since at one point, I too lived in Colorado. He fished a gorgeous bamboo rod. Gary wasn't accustomed to throwing double nymph rigs under an indicator, but soon got the jist of it and wore them out. We lost a few really nice toads. Both times the fish just outsmarted us. The first was a big brown who dove deep and shook the hook. Halfway down the shoal he hooked a rainbow that just peeled the line off of his reel and went straight into the fallen timber. We continued fishing and caught bunches more fish. Then, on the last drift of the day, Gary hooked a brown measuring in close to 20 inches. He played the fish perfectly and landed him! It was a perfect ending to a great day!
