TR Strange happening on the CT River

You had a great day, George.


BTW, any of you guys have stories about doubles?


Most of the doubles I've hooked have either broken off or thrown the hook.

My coolest memory was one of the few I actually landed. I had on a dry
and dropper and a smallish Rainbow grabbed the dry and when I got it
in close, it ran under a boulder just downstream from me. I pulled it
out from under the rock and out shot a nice Brown. The Brown was VERY
agitated and chased the smaller fish around. It reminded me of the way
that smallmouth will sometimes followed a hooked fish up to the surface.
I let the smaller fish swim around (it was too big for the Brown to try
and eat) to see what the Brown would do. The Brown spotted the dropper,
took it and was hooked. All this happened about three feet away and
it was very interesting to watch. The two fish fighting together or
against one another, were very tough to land.
