Fishing beautiful tight water in the TX hill country - the convergence of the Guadalupe forks
nice yellow belly - yep, they're supposed to be there
Big catfish - that was a hoot
and many little spotted bass - probably a hundred for the day
more pretty water
but I was absolutely floored to catch an 18" rainbow
the best we can figure, Bear Creek, about 10 miles upriver is all private and one of the landowners stocks rainbows in the winter.
But still, very surprising for a June fishing trip in the Texas hill country. We measured the water temperature - 76 oF right here,
but we found many cold spring vents on the way up.
