Excellent! Big Fun on a 5wt!
Good to see, mine almost always get away before I get them to the boat, batting 250 ain't all bad!

Sweet!
Being out on the water in the kayak is the prize. Catching fish is the bonus.

The season of the 5wt for those fellas is almost done. They do well in the cool water but when the water warms its just too much stress on em and I move up to an 8wt. This one went about 25"s and took ten minutes to land. Do that in warm water and you end up with a dead fish and a fistful of bad karma. Sure is fun now though. Thanks for lookin.
