Wild Rainbow on the Truckee

Micky Middleton did fantastic for her first time on Crowley. This jumbo rainbow fell to a Punk Perch in short water near the inlet to McGee. The bigs are hunting the multitude of damsel fly nymphs that are now present on Crowley.

Sir Charles Middleton displaying a quality rainbow that slammed a Drifters Punk Perch near McGee Creek.

Bako boy Darren Thornberry got into some nice fish off Sandy Pt. with Doug Rodricks.

Congrats to Ryan Schramm for besting this awesome rainbow. Ryan fished Assassins off Sandy Pt. with Doug Rodricks.

Kathy Murray got big fish honors after besting this big rainbow off Sandy Pt. while hanging Assassins below an Under-Cator on Doug Rodricks Ranger boat.

Mike Konier used Assassins near the inlet to McGee Creek while being guided by Doug Rodricks to get this beautiful rainbow.

My great friend and veteran Drifter Franko “whiskers” Carlsen always gets big fish. This buck took a #14 dark crystal tiger midge in twenty feet.

The Vikings came over to check out the monsters on Jurassic Pond and were not let down. Andre Kristiansen from Norway got to dance with several bigs on his session at the pond. This one took an Agent Orange “strymph” pattern.

Oivind Haugen from Norway nailed this blimp on one of his own caddis larva patterns. Nice fish “O”

Sue Brock had a fantastic time “catching” on JP with her husband and friends.

Dave Liebhart got big fish honors on his first trip with his dad to JP. Dave had a great day, & fooled this monster on a Punk Perch pattern.

Kelly Liebhart slayed them on his session to Jurassic Pond. He got this beast on a streamer. Pleasure watching you “catch” Kelly. Nice job.

Neysa DeMann hanging onto a “blimp” sized rainbow that she got while nymphing the inlet at Jurassic. Nice one mam!

Check out the stunning color on this male rainbow Keith Cohn got on the pond.

The U. S.C. G.’s finest, Dave Froning got his fish of a lifetime on Jurassic Pond. Great fish Dave, congrats! This fish is over thirty inches.

Postcard shot ehhh? Lauren Froning got this one on an Assassin nymph with her hubby Dave helping out with the hold.

Dave Fitzpatrick, Pappy to the grandkids, with the gang and the fish they caught. From left is Brady, Drew, Gavin and Jameson. All of the trout were barbecued and consumed the next evening. I’m told they were delicious.
