first wild rainbow

[Mr. Bassturd]

well i finally got my first wild rainbow today floatin a west trib this evening finally got the smell of skunk off. It was jus a little guy around 7 inches no pic put him back but it broke my streak so im happy :mrgreen: I have caught them in a few stocked ponds but thats not as satisfying as locating them in there natural habitats.

Its a slow and steady learning curve, enjoy the learning experience Warning, you are heading into an entirely new type of fishing that may or may not distance you from close friends and family :lol: Good job getting into one, its all uphill from here.
