Salmonflies
Pteronarcys californica

The giant Salmonflies of the Western mountains are legendary for their proclivity to elicit consistent dry-fly action and ferocious strikes.

27" brown trout, my largest ever. It was the sub-dominant fish in its pool. After this, I hooked the bigger one, but I couldn't land it.

November Steelhead [Page: 1, 2]
+ 2
Nicely colored up hen, probably has been in the creek a few weeks. Very strong fish, jumped repeatedly and almost put me in the backing. An example of a very bright and fresh fish.  May have come up from the lake the day before. Lovely pool with great green water, deep slots, and many fish.  We caught many fish from this pool. You can see the deeper colored areas - that is where the steelhead like to lie - I have no idea why I look like such a doofus in this picture. Exact same piece of water as the prior fish except this one is a minnow.
