Caught this creek beauty today. The photo makes him look small, but he was probably a good 9-10 inches, which is pretty good for a little creek like this. Tight lines🤟🤟

Went for a toasty hike today. I don't recall trying to fish trout in this kind of heat before so I kept an eye on the water temp through out the day. It started alright at around 64F in the morning, and got borderline around mid day. The recent heat must have messed up the fish as they were not easy to entice. I caught less than 10, but hooked this nice 15"er that swiped my nymph.
