Last night was a big milestone for me. First trout on the fly, and on a fast moving creek too! I was wading along the bank casting downstream with one of these guys:

I would let it drift a little, then pick it up and put it down somewhere else. One of the casts I put the fly right where the slower water near the bank and the rapids in the middle meet. Seconds after laying it down a fish comes clear out of the water to take the fly! I gotta say, the fight on the fly is much, much better than on spinning tackle, it was extremely fun.
