Rush River 5.3.16

My friend Eddie Rivard and I originally planned on exploring another area stream, but after realizing we wouldn’t be able to fish it all before dark, opted to hit a stretch on the Rush neither of us had fished. I fished with my trusted Euro Pheasant Tail and Zebra Midge rig, and on my second cast of the day, caught this nice 13″ brown.

Check out those spots!

We slowly made our way upstream and I picked off a couple fish in every run. Eddie was using streamers and caught this little guy on a conehead Muddler Minnow.

We didn’t leave ourselves quite enough time to fish the whole stretch, and only fished about half of it before dark. I ended up with around a dozen browns and one sucker. Eddie caught two browns himself. Not a bad evening!
