McKenzie River Fishing

My friend Julie and I went fly fishing on the McKenzie River last Sunday.  The weather was perfect and the fishing was pretty good.  We caught our limit of trout and I caught this steelhead:

The fly choice of the day was called a Possie Bugger.  It has this name due to the fawn colored Australian opossum fur used in it.

The guide fixed us a fish fry lunch, he fried four trout in two cubes of butter!  It was a fun day.  Julie's first fly fishing experience, my first steelhead, and my first fishing trip that didn't involve my dad or my husband.
