Highlands on Halloween

Spooky times. Was scheduled to meet with Josh, Dru, and Adam, only Adam was able to get out of bed and to the streams. Was in the parking lot at 7am, still a little too early for the sun.

Got into the creek about 7:15, swinging some buggers, and then my clouser/black nose dace creation and it paid off with this Palimino then another good rainbow. Also landed a smaller brown.

Adam showed up, we fished down to the mouth and back up, landed a few along the way. Went up to the upper stretch, which was more of a hike than a fishing experience. We each landed a brown in the upper section. The wind picked up, followed by the rain, we went back to the Slides, where Adam landed this huge rainbow that measured 25"

Packed it up there and went over to Cucumber Falls. It was holding a few smaller river run rainbows and browns. We each landed a few, before the crappy weather turned worse and we headed out.
