My first ever fly casting catch. Early in the morning before heading out on Deka Lake, I wanted to ensure my gear was set and ready for the day of fishing ahead. I landed my first cast ever so nicely and let it sit for a bit while my fishing buddy was getting his stuff together in the boat. With the sun in my eyes I was having trouble watching my indicator and to my unexpected surprise it was moving left to right just under the water surface. I pulled back on my rod quickly and set the hook and quickly landed this beautiful little 2lb 4oz Rainbow Trout. My fishing buddy was excited for me but jealous as we had previously made a bet the night before on who ever caught the first fish on our newly purchased first ever fly rods would have to buy the celebratory beers afterwards.

There is no Ice on Monte Lake yet

Is there any Ice on Red Lake yet?
