Details:

My first catch of the year was an astounding 3 inch brown trout. Not only was it my first catch of the year but the first time I ever caught anything with a nymph. The battle may have been anti-climactic but all the same good fun. Everyone else seemed to be having the same luck as me today.

Salmon River (TMA)
