dsukh Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Went out to a nearby stream after work today for an hour or so. There were a bunch of these little guys, but unfortunately im not experienced enough to properly ID this. What is it? photo by dsukh, on Flickr
Djeep Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 little rainbow trout it looks like. treat em with care so they can go larger
dsukh Posted June 9, 2012 Author Report Posted June 9, 2012 Awesome! Used barbless hook, and fish never left water until he hopped right when I was talking the picture. Haha, had a great time
GreenCanada Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Nice little Rainbow. You're likely to find a lot of them this time of year. But don't go telling many people where!
BillM Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Nice little Rainbow. You're likely to find a lot of them this time of year. But don't go telling many people where! You really don't want to be targeting those fish, they are steelhead smolts... Let them get big before you put hooks into them..
dsukh Posted June 9, 2012 Author Report Posted June 9, 2012 You really don't want to be targeting those fish, they are steelhead smolts... Let them get big before you put hooks into them.. Haha agree, although I'm sure nobody intentionally targets smolts.
BillM Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Haha agree, although I'm sure nobody intentionally targets smolts. You give people way too much credit, lol.
dsukh Posted June 9, 2012 Author Report Posted June 9, 2012 Lol well hopefully that's the case anyways, now that I found the small ones hopefully I'll be able to find the bigger ones. New to fly fishing lol, any tips will much much appreciated (:
