Fly Fishing a TINY Creek and catching a HUGE TROUT
Fly Fishing for Big Brook trout and Rainbow Trout When I decide to fly fish a tiny creek I usually don t expect to catch anything massive. Typically a 12 inch fish in a small creek is pretty big. So when you run into a rainbow trout that is pushing 23 inches in a creek you can literally jump across its something you won t soon forget I spent around 15 minutes trying to catch the big fish before it eventually at a size 12 stonefly. I had seen the fish earlier in the day but wasn t able to cast at it before it disappeared. So I spent some time fishing a different section of the creek and came back to the hole where I knew the big fish was laying. After hooking the fish all hell broke loose This fight is easily one of the most intense fights I ve been in. Not necessarily because of the fish (I ve caught bigger) but because of the small creek and the amount of stuff the fish could get into. It took me a while to tire the fish enough to even attempt to
