Hog Wild!



Holy shit boy's got in to some hog's last night. We only managed to land one of the big one's, but we hooked up with some 20'' + trout that had me screaming like a little girl. We fished a different part of the North Raven and the water condition's weren't much better than sunday, but we managed to find a slightly slower section of water that looked promising. With the may fly hatch in full swing it didn't take long to notice a few small { i mean small} boil's in the water and after some tricky casting and line mending i hooked this hog on a #14 olive dun. After this guy we notice one 6 feet down farther and shawn broke him off, a nice 20+ trout. And as Shawn predicted the trout moved 5-6 feet and started to feed again, luckly he came up stream to me and after missing him once i hooked him and he jumped out of the water a good foot and after a short fight he went to jump again and threw the hook. After that the hatch died off but we both managed to raise a couple of more BIG trout before it got dark. By far the most exciting fishing i've ever done, can't wait till you guy's come up and we can hit the Blackstone
