Taylor River @ C&R Frustrations 06Sep18

Thursday was my day for the Taylor hog trough, the C&R section just below the Taylor Rez effluent where the big boys roam. I did hook up with two very large cutbows but lost both in the span of 15 minutes - grrr. They nailed my Awesome Midge late-morning but took my last two bugs of that ilk. I just could not yield the same results with a similarly sized grey KF Flasher midge. I soldiered on but only caught a number of smaller browns and rainbows like these for the rest of the day - though I did leave pretty early in frustration. Seeing those big slabs of cutbow leaping for something is humbling - on this epic bug water I tried to match further but to no avail really.
