A Triple The Hard Way With Andy & Jim 08Jun21

Andy Holley bought the gold Mirage reel AND took me out to Rainbow Falls today. We had a blast in the heat, but the fishing was very cool. We all caught plenty of fish but I was "lucky" enough to bag an unusual triple today... brown, cutbow, and GOLDEN. I'd never caught a golden before so yeah for the new species but it was even better that it yielded a triple. I was wielding the Rodfather Brookie 3 wt and landing a number of nice 20+ inchers; there were times when it wasn't enough though - like with a couple of leaping 22"ers that I just couldn't quite control enough. It was a blast on a many fish day for each of us. My best rig with all bugs producing was the #18 black ice, #20 Destiny's Child, #20 Barr's emerger. This was especially deadly during the 11am BWO hatch. I ignorantly forgot the triple threat selfie.
