Trout Fishing Trip - Upper Linville River North Carolina

Sat, 01/02/2010 - 15:52 -- smaslar

We started the year off right again this New Year's by going fishing on the Upper Linville River in North Carolina above the Linville Falls, up to the campground.  It was a beautiful day to be in the woods, with 6 inches of residual snow.  The fishing started out hot, with Dan catching three trout right away.  A little later in the morning, he landed a 24" long Rainbow Trout that probably pushed 3 lbs.  Later in the afternoon, the fishing slowed considerably.
