Gas $1.95

Three cars at the trail head as I pulled in, another fisherman pulled in before I hit the trail. He started down low and I later found out he fished up to the campground while I headed up to the bridge.

The first thing I encounter was a slew of cairns and rocks placed on fallen trees. I'm going to make some stickers "Don't Stack Rocks" to plaster at trail heads... Gofund my sticker campaign..



The fish were looking at the fly and after a few misses I started hooking them. Brookies and Rainbows, no browns today. I took a lot of photos and videos. The iPhone live photo takes a 3 sec video which can be manipulated in camera for long exposure. Who knew, besides Raymond? I also changed the setting on video file format to most compatible instead of high efficiency, which has some compatibility issues. And I thought I had changed the video to 4k but it didn't "stick" and the videos were shot at 1080P 60fps. Shooting with the Oly TG-6 on this stream I didn't really notice how little light makes it through the canopy and with ISO set at 100 the exposure was 1/10 sec at f/2.0, slow enough to get noticeable camera movement blurred photos.  I'll have to modify my settings for this stream.

I continued with my Royal theme and tied on a freshly tied Trude #16, but the wing was a little long,

Fished up past the house for a bit but the bite was off and I called it a day after 4 hours. Back at the trailhead, the other fly fisherman was packing up and reported a good day. As I was eating my snack another fisherman pulled in driving a Town Car and rigged up a pink rod and was planning to fish trout worms. Not entirely sure but aren't those considered bait?

ex - I'm not going to live with you through one more fishing season!
me -There's a season?

Pastor explains icons to my son: you know like the fish symbol on the back of cars.
My son: My dad has two fish on his car and they're both trout!
