Local Product

Zumbro River gave this up on Tuesday night. Found a small group of fish feeding on a nice little flat. This fish (and the smaller one caught just before) literally HIT this fly as I strip/hopped it through the group. Kind of half-sight-fishing. Pretty cool. I saw my backing on the spool during a great run downstream, although she never actually got into it. Measured 29" and my guess on weight is 12-13 lbs. Rod for scale is 7 wt Redington.
