We got a little while to go out yesterday afternoon and I thought the trip was going to be a bust. The Corp had the water levels way down for some reason and most of my best spots were now above the water, which makes much harder to fish them.
We moved out into the river and finally found some action though. I got to slime two of the new Daiwa Trout X rods I bought. The 5'6" and the 6', both in XUL. I put a new '23 legalis on the 5'6" one because it just seemed like a good fit to the rod and man, do they pair well together. I have a Luvias on the 6'er and fished most of the time with it. I find these two rods to be awesome for float fishing. An average sized BG puts a nice bend in them, but they still have enough backbone to get a quick hookset. I am really happy with both of them. I actually ended up with two of the shorter ones (It's a long story lol) so I put a Reagal on it. It is not as light as the Legalis but a great real none the less.
In the first pick, I promise that is not staged. I caught that little thing on a meal worm lol. Then we got into some pretty nice gills, and then all the Pumkin seeds started showing up. Not much for size but really pretty colors, we had a blast reeling them in.
