That last fish looks like it has a coat or two of Z2Pro and Z8.  Good to see you around man!

PT.......that would have been a great fish to catch on a 5wt, I like to underline the fish as a challenge.
I just went fishing again today.........and it was a lot of fun. Its so nice to be able to go fishing in 10 min and catch some 12-17" browns.

That fish was caught on a size 24 midge pupae I tied and my winston 5 wt on 5x and 6x tippet. Can't remember if it was the point fly or the dropper. My brother landed it. I have landed trout larger but never on such light line and delicate hook.
I am out on the Juan in Sept for another week with my Dad, uncle and brother. Can't wait to retire in New Mexico!
The trout in Arkansas can be much larger but usually night fishing with big streamers are the key. | |

The guide I went out with does drift boat fly fishing on the San Juan, and that's hopefully the next place I'll be hitting.

Those big trout on tiny flies can be very addictive! Let me know if you are headed out and I will send you some flies. | |
