Strawberry
#1
Don't do these kind of reports anymore, but there was some interest here. No Tigers, Lions or Bears, just Trout on the Fly[cool]

We hit the Strawberry bay at around 8:30 and hit the water by 9. Water temp was a nice 61 degrees...
I loaded up three rods. One with an Intermediate, special bugger and a Gartside Softhackle. Then a Type II with a Bunny leech and a bugger, and third was 350 grain Depth Charge loaded with a Gartside and a a bugger.
After about 36 minute set up via the LVM pump and top off with K pump, stringing rods, hippers/flippers hubby and Baxter were under way:

I went to the right to a little bay, but this bay was up to 80' deep. I found fish in the 20' area and hunkered down casting intermediate.

Catch was good till around 11ish. Then it slowed down.
I noticed on sonar the fish were being spotted in 27' at 30' depth, so I switched to my type II rod and line.
Bite back on and all is good

One very long, big headed trout, but rest were fat and healthy

This went on till about noon when the wind had picked up pretty good and the water temp up a degree. I switched to the Depth Charge and was now fishing in 70' of water with fish showing at around 67'.

It was a great day, and all fish were revived and released

Looks like you guys had a good time! No chironomids this trip??? What do you use to determine which flies you're going to use for the day? Obviously, can't go wrong with a bugger or leech.

Thanks, just a sample of a wonderful day.
Yes it is the GoPro Remote. Pretty slick unit. Specially when weary camera on your head or on a mount behind you on a pontoon. Next they are coming out with the ap for phones so you can see what you are videoing.
My next purchase will be the underwater case. It comes with one, but they have one that is wonderful underwater.
I love your pictures!
