Half-Pounders on the A

[Pvillarr]

I was out the other evening and had the absolute pleasure of meeting Erik Gabele while we were in search of some fresh half pounders. I had hooked one that I lost earlier and did not get any more grabs, but Erik managed to hook this beautiful fresh chrome and wild fish! It absolutely one of the greatest fish I have ever had the opportunity to help land and see in person. I just thought you guys had to see this fish, my net's webbing measures up to 24 inches and this fish was nowhere close to fitting in my net, easily much bigger than 24-25 inches. It was an exciting evening for sure. I also saw some other very fresh fish jumping completely out of the water around sunset, the cooler water seems to be bringing more fish into the system. I'm glad I had the experience of seeing this fish caught!

Wow. That is a nice fish….especially for this time of year. I am curious if he was throwing a streamer or a larger wetfly/nymph?
