Three Rainbows on one day in Farmington Vermillion River.

Today I went trout fishing in Farmington. I mainly used one type of fly. The Woolly Bugger fly. I started just before 8 am.

I had caught the first one in a part of the stream that there were bubbles in the water. I would have liked to keep it but I didn't have anything to put it in. I put it back into the water. After I lost my leader I decided to go back to the car and change reels. I grabbed some bags in case I caught another one. I went to the same spot and an about 15 minutes later I caught my second trout. This was about 9 am. I bagged the trout and put it into the ice cooler in my car.

I went down by the trestle bridge in the park. I fished up stream from someone or a while. He had asked me if I had caught any. I told him that I had caught two so far and that I had never caught any under this bridge. I figure I try it like always I give it a try. It's a nice location except for the low power lines.

I said that I had caught the two deeper in the park. He left by the way that I had come in to the park.

I went to the spot under the power lines where he had no luck and then I caught my third rainbow.

I think that my success was better earlier in the morning. As it got closer to noon I had less success. I have heard that trout feed more actively in the early morning and the lat evening. I have to try it again either earlier in the morning or later in the evening.

Tom Loses Challenge.



Tom M. "Tim" decided to challenge one of the stores that he could sell more extended warranties that the store. I guess he lost and here is is punishment. He delivered Divani's subs to our desks.
