What a weekend!
#5
Where were you at Scofield? Mindsoup and I went over Saturday afternoon to help her parents take down their booth. They were the metal art vendors.

We stayed for the fireworks too, but I did catch two Rainbows while we were waiting. I even caught them on Captain America Power Bait. Kinda fitting for the evening I thought. The larger of the two got tangled in the lines of the guys next to us, so I just got a good grip on the fish, and cut my line. I had on 6lb. test and the drag down as tight as I dared by the time it got close, but it still managed to get in their lines. Gave one good jump clear out of the water too. Feisty little critter. I didn't measure or weigh them, but I would guess them to be 16-17" and 18-19" and around 1.25-1.75lbs.

We were at the first pull-out towards the dam from town. In years past, I've tried the shallow beach past town, but not had much luck over there this time of year.
