Cudz Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 One of my children had a bday party to attend and I noticed that the party was near a creek I used to fish about 20 years ago. I decided to bring some worms and a rod. I dropped her off and had about 1 hour to fish. I know this creek used to hold browns but I wasn't sure if they were still there. I was walking quite far away from the creek and trying not to make noise as it is not too big and very clear. Despite my best efforts I did spook a small trout and darted away from me. I walked a bit further downstream. I saw a nice log in the middle of the creek so casted my weightless piece of warm. To my surprise a little missile came out of the opposite bank and smaked the worm. It was funny because I was fishing the log and the trout came from the other shore bank nowhere near the log. Anyway, I haven't fished for these for 20 years so it was cool getting one. She was small but very pretty. I released her to be caught another day.

Wild Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Very beautiful brown Cudz but let's deal with the important stuff first, what kind of cake was served? and what is your rod & reel setup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cudz Posted September 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 (edited) Very beautiful brown Cudz but let's deal with the important stuff first, what kind of cake was served? and what is your rod & reel setup? I've been told the cake was a princess ballerina cake (chocolate). Apparently it was very good. I no longer fish streams so I have nothing light. I was using a ML 6'6" spinning rod with a medium sized reel. 8 pound mono. This is actually my drop shot setup. It was about the lightest combo I could come up with.

Wild Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Well Cudz the cake sounds great but just remember that next party you have to bring back a slice for everyone! Err at least for me I just bought a 5 ft ultralight and fitted it with a micro reel now that would have been really fun with that brown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to have 2 of them but I think somehow my dad inherited both and they are with him in Edmonton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
