It took me around five minutes to land the fish. Not the biggest brown trout I've ever caught, but not a bad catch for a 30 minute outing.

The Milwaukee Harbor Is Full Of Fish
I drove down to the lake today to kill some time on my day off. As I walked along the water in Veteran's park, I saw numerous brown trout very close to shore. I walked back to my car, drove a little ways, assembled my fly rod, and grabbed some "reserve" flies that happened to be in my car. I walked to Mckinley Marina and started roll casting off the rocks. It probably wasn't 20 minutes before I was hooked up with a fish.
It took me around five minutes to land the fish. Not the biggest brown trout I've ever caught, but not a bad catch for a 30 minute outing.

Damn nice brownie!
ReplyDeleteThanks. It was the biggest trout I've ever caught on a fly. My poor 5 weight is really getting pushed to the limit.
DeleteSweet!
