The first day we hooked a lot of fish. The problem is landing them. We both had some oppurtunities at some quality fish but they always seem to find a way to win. The best part for me and many others is just getting them to bite. Also they almost always put on an aerial display before pulling the hook or breaking you off so you usually get to see the fish before you loose it. Tony, however was able to land a slob on his 8 wt. We estimated the fish in the High Teens. It was an absloute bruiser and it had plenty of battle marks to prove why it got that big. The fish actually had a few flies and hooks still attached to it.
