San Juan River – Cottonwood Campground – Friday September 24, 2021

I have been catching a lot of fish in the 10 to 13 inch range. First part of this week I changed to a 3 weight rod and 7X tippet. 3 weight rods are smaller fish and 7X tippet is 2.6 lbs leader.

Today I got a large brown trout, 18 plus inches. With this light rod and tippet it took me an hour and 10 minutes to get this fish to the net.

After 50 minutes I was lucky enough to have another fisher person come by to take some pictures.
