Fish from today. (Pic)

[Mitch Callas]

I caught this today. I just started tying my own flies and it is so awesome catching a fish on one. This may not be the biggest fish, but it put up a great fight. It gave me a nice splash to the face as it swam away.

I've got the bug bad. I fished for the first time in a long time last week, and caught a fish on my own bug. I can't stop thinking about fishing, flies, fishing, catching fish, and fishing. I used to like fishing. I think I am now a crazed and obsessed soon to be trout bum. I guess it could be worse?

You're right about catching on your own bug...sounds like you're toast to me though...its a disease with no cure:D

I wanna see a picture of the bug...

I wish I had a picture of it with the fly in it's mouth. I was too worried about getting it back in the water and back on it's way I guess. I caught it on a little red brassie pattern! Hopefully I can get out again this weekend and get a picture of another one, although its super cold.
