This report covers four days of fishing with clients from April 24 to April 27. Most trout landed were between 16 and 20 inches.
I nymphed for about 3 hours. In that time I caught and released nine rainbows ranging in size from about 16 to 20 inches.
In the 2.5 hours I was out I landed 8 rainbow ranging in size from 16 to 24 inches. I was hooking a fish every second or third cast.
With spring now on us the fishing is heating up. We drifted down the Columbia and landed a gorgeous 23 inch rainbow around noon.
