Fishing in Bridgeport

We arrived in Bridgeport yesterday at about 3:30 pm for a few days of fishing on the East Walker River.  This is a beautiful area for sightseeing as well as fishing.

After we got unpacked, Debra wanted to rest from our long drive.  So, while she was napping, I took off to check out the river..  It was a little windy, which is always a challenge for fly fishing.  But I was up to the challenge and decided to brave the elements.  I wasn't left unrewarded.  After just a few casts a nice brown trout was on the rise.  It was a picture perfect presentation and the timing on setting the hook couldn't have been better.  As a result I caught my first brown trout of the day.

Gotta go for now.  I'll have more later on today.
