Rainbow Trout Again

Bret caught this great looking Rainbow Trout earlier in the season during the spring. Healthy coloring: white ventrally to pink to olive dorsally. This was a great spot in Deerfield where you could wade out into the river.

Golden Trout - or another trout.

The Golden Trout is one of the smallest trout species and is typically indigenous to California and the Northwest United States. Bret made this catch in the Mass/Connecticut area so there is a strong possibility it is a different species of trout. The eye is can be seen at the very edge of the picture but but the mouth and head are not clearly visible. The most striking characteristic in the above picture is the large dark oval shaped markings. While these markings are typical of Golden Trout, they are also typical in the majority of adolescent trout and salmon. The fish could easily be a young trout of another species. In the picture the shiny skin that covers the opercular bones (gill cover posterior to the eye and anterior to the pectoral fin) is clearly visible, almost like a large eye. The picture on the bottom shows a confirmed Golden Trout caught in California.

Fall Fallfish

Went for some afternoon fishing and Fagan caught this fallfish. Great looking fish, striking pink/red underbelly. Its the time of year when most fallfish are spawning, the red ventral coloring is an indicator.

Brown Trout

Take a look at these nice Brown Trout Nate caught. Also, I took a picture of my tacklebox fully stocked with some different Rooster Tail Spinners, all great for stream fishing.

Fallfish, a new spot and some Deer tracks

Beautiful Saturday morning. Caught another Fallfish, this time I used a single hook rooster tail. It was looking young and extremely healthy, I was glad to send it back to its family quickly.



I found a new spot underneath a bridge. The water was low enough so I could walk through the drainage tunnel



Right after my first cast I looked down to find some deer tracks... which is amazing because I was standing on a patch of sand down a steep hill from the roadside with two converging rivers on either side.

Falls coming to an end

The stream and a great looking bug.. hardly any leaves left these days. Don't worry though, you can fish well into winter and through the season as long as the water doesn't freeze. (Ice fishing is great on safe lakes and ponds)
