Brown,White & Gold

First Kutt of the year
Broke back brown.........


Best browns I have seen in a while.




Ripped lip













Monster on a white fish


One of about five Golden suckers
25" plus........... After a 15 minute fight.

I took a short drive to the Weber this weekend. This being a solo trip i wanted to cover a lot of water. I started early and moved up river before the sun came up. A bitter breeze kept my head down the whole way. (Being just above 0 degrees didn't help) Every drift i fished was bunk. Not a fish in sight. It was just one of those days. The last pool I fished was calm, slow moving and very deep. I switched up the line up and tossed into the drift. First cast......nothing. Second cast......nothing. This continued well past the fifty count. This drift was too perfect to not hold fish. Where were they? I took a break, ate some lunch and warmed up in the sun.
After a good half hour I made a new plan of attack. Looked over the run and noticed i had only been fishing the inside and center. I quickly moved down river to the other side. False cast.....shoot. perfect right on the seam..........wham! fish on. Pretty good tug, A nice 17-18" brown. Next cast bunk. Next same spot Wham! my poor 5# Bent hard bouncing left and right. Felt like a oak door. As I pulled toward the bank It surfaced.....A big fat Golden sucker. He took my #12 Green larva right in the suck hole. LOL I am starting to not like these fish. I caught close to 5 Suckers in an hour. Luckly i was able to balance them out with a few more browns,White fish and a Nice looking Kutt. All in all it was a very good day.
