The Caney Fork River, Tennessee



Fly fishing on the Caney Fork River, Tennessee. On this particular day the sky was overcast and a threat of rain at any minute, but I can't remember when I had a more successful day. Rainbows and Browns seemed to like most of the flies that I cast toward them.







This is not the same fish, believe it or not. They were all really nice fish and what a fight they gave me. I used buggers and nymphs most of the day.








Another rainbow the same day. Sure glad I brought my camera, which is the first time that I had taken it in almost a year. Can't imagine how I would have felt had I not been able to get these pictures.











This big brown was caught on a prince nymph and I nearly lost him under a pile of limbs hanging down in the water.










Best fight of the day. Another big brown. I just love the Caney Fork River.













I don't always catch fish of this size and quality but I sure do have a great time trying.
