Handful of Brookies and ‘Bows today for a quick limit. Roughly 4 hours, maybe just over, and I was off the water with a mixed bag of 5 fish. Amazing morning.

Did some hiking, camping, and fishing last night on a small pond loaded with wild Brook Trout! At first I was struggling with casting distance but as the sun began to set, the trout started to move closer and I managed to land two gorgeous brookies!
