The day looked promising as it was windy and over cast. The only downfall was the low water temperature. Todays ended up at the same beach but this time we were not alone but rather fishing amongst 30 other fisher people.
Morning landed four fish.
Trev broke off a big one and got into a few.
Our guide Mike Curtis was awesome. Switching up flies and giving us two handed lessons while we indicated for these huge fish. Got to try long casting a 12 ft 7 wgt rod was also fun and was able to land one fish on this system stripping in small streamers.
What I found also exciting was the fact that these large fish take such small flies and can be seen cruising and porpoising the shallows
In the end we landed 29 Lahotan summit cutties over two days. Had a spectacular guide and got to fish an amazing lake. Snuck in some golf and gambling (even won some money back on last night) Thanks to fishing buddy TBone for joining me on this bucket list trip. Good times and can’t wait until we come back. Reno did not disappoint. Maybe next time it might have to be a fins skins and snowboarding trip.
