Went out for about 3-4 hours today afterschool water was up tiny bit, flows were definitely inscreased and the water was slightly murky. i tried and tried..missed 5 bites before even hooking a fish, but still lost it.. then, i heard thunder in the distance. didn't think much of it at first but then it started to pour down rain and the thinder got louder. didn't bother me much since ive seen much worse in the midwest. so i tried the same spot for a few more minutes with no luck, hopped on the bike and went down further to an area i havent fished since opening day and got all 3 fish there. missed 4 strikes includng one in about a foot of water it was pretty sweet watching the fish come out from behind a rock and bite my fly,, but i somehow missed him :lol: also lost one more i had hooked for a few seconds. my reel ended up breaking after i caught the 3rd and biggest fish of the day, some pins fell out and the reel didn't fit together right, and wouldnt turn.. it was screwing up the whole trip but i didn't think anything of it at first. my grandpa saved me and pitched 14 bucks to help me get a new one.
