Taylor River @ Taylor River Lodge

It was hard to believe it was November today! It was a beautiful warm day, and the fishing was good. Randy and Darcy had a good time on the Taylor River at the Taylor River Lodge (booked via Irwin Guides) today, landing some nice fish like this big rainbow here.

Taylor River @ Taylor River Lodge

Doug and his son, Harrison, caught some big chunky rainbows today on the Taylor River at the Taylor River Lodge (booked via Irwin Guides). They both did really well casting heavy nymph rigs for the first time. Some of the really big fish were tough to hang on to, but they sure gave them a fun ride!

Streamer Fishing

Fall is a great time to throw streamers. Hitting the pockets around the boulders in Taylor Canyon can be really fun.

Taylor River @ Taylor River Lodge

Hank did great yesterday on the Taylor River at the Taylor River Lodge, catching browns, rainbows, cutthroat, and cutbows. Hank was a guest of Eleven, with the guide service provided by Irwin Guides. I really enjoyed the day with Hank and had fun showing him the water for the first time.
