Had the day off so I headed up to fish the Taylor River C&R stretch. Caught some really nice fish, including a very big rainbow of about 25 inches (bottom photo), all on a size 20 dry fly and a bamboo rod. (This bamboo rod is actually named “GDO” – which stands for Guide’s Day Off.) It was fun catching big trout on a single dry fly and a bamboo rod. It was a great way to spend my birthday.
