I didn't see this until now. Thanks Bro. You know we would have fished past closure that night until I got one.
6wt is perfectly capable of catching these fish I think, but, the longer fight seemed to always leave more chance for the fish to break off, or take a longer run and get away. Regardless, that my only rod and my Battenkill, worked well for at least one fish. They certainly don't come easy on the 6wt.

Awesome.
You guys are killing me with these awesome fish on fly rods. haven't been out on a river in a while.
Hey Float, any chance you'd take me to a few spots where i could cast a few flies for these brutes? I'm too chicken to blindly wade into the river systems down there when i hear how crowded they are. would like to learn the etiquette from someone who does it right. I've got a 6 wt, an 8 wt and a 9 wt. probably would bring the 8wt. are there many opportunities for that this time of year?
just a thought.
