While attending the 2018 Fly Fishers International Fly Fishing Fair in Boise, Idaho last week, I got the chance to fish for a day with my good friend from Australia, Noel Williams. \u00a0 We drove the 90 minutes it took to get to the Owyhee River and tempted the big brown trout for the day.\u00a0 Noel fished with his 8′\u00a0 3″\u00a0 5 wt medium action bamboo fly rod, while I used my 9′\u00a0 0″\u00a0 3 wt EuroNymphing Bamboo Rod.\u00a0 We had pretty slow fishing early in the day, but the PMDs came out in the afternoon and we found an area with some rising fish.\u00a0 Noel bested me for the day, landing his largest brown trout ever (about 20″)…on a fly he tied himself…how great is that.!\u00a0 I hooked into a few nice browns but couldn’t land any of them.\u00a0 Noel’s wife, Sue, joined us for the day, and although she doesn’t fish, she did a great job netting fish and taking some excellent photos.<\/p>\n
