Somewhere over the Rainbow

[dainer]

My dad and I went out and closed up the cabin for the winter and brought our fishing stuff back to town before we get much more snow. We were ahead of schedule, so I suggested we stop off and wet a fly line...


It was 13 degrees when we got out of the truck and we were busting ice off the guides every other cast.

Five casts later I hook up.

Wasn't much fun scooping it out of the water

My best "Stretch Armstrong" impression

13 casts later, my dad connected

My dad's Rainbow

Sent the fish on their way and we headed back to town with pleasant memories of what would have otherwise been a day of chores.
