Da Nelle, biggest one I've ever hooked.
#1
Started out a little slow this morning, we couldn't find the troutskies or we were throwing the wrong baits but all turned out very well. I had a bruiser brown turn away right at the boat, guesstimating around 9-10 lbs., it was awesome to see and it made me jump lol. It was game on after that, found the right combination. I was surprised to see how big the cutts are the nelle, they were the majority of our catch. Three browns, four? (released) a little rainbow and the rest cutts.
I caught a nice cutt that did a death roll in my net and long story short I ended up with a treble in my thumb. the wide gap hook was the one that penetrated of course. Being too deep to push it through and too painful to pull it out I did what seemed the most logical, cut the other two hooks off and keep fishing. No sense in leaving when they are biting. Had the doc take it out and that was brutal.
On a stranger note, my daughter who claims to be a 'meatatarian' has been watching too much Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern and wanted me to fry the eyeballs. I didn't think she would really eat them, yuck!
