After doing all I could with the fly rod I went to the spinning outfit. I use it more but it is rewarding to get fish on the fly. These fish will bend a rod.

No matter the size these fish fight all the way to the rod. This fish is not caught yet and care is required to avoid a break off or self release as they try every trick.

And there is another nice wild rainbow trout. I was very pleased with the camera and the remote function. When alone you usually can not get these shots.

Hooked up again. This hole is usually productive but the water level had finally risen and the cooler temps made the fish happy and hungry.

there it is, smallish but still a load of fun on light tackle. I am staying low in part to stay in frame but I would be doing the same if not shooting.

I moved to another hole up the creek. I had condensation on the lens as it was cool and there was some rain. It was overcast. This is also a benefit for the angler.
