Goal achieved

One of my Fly fishing goals was a 'bag limit' -- 12 fish over 10 inches -- on the fly.  Finally achieved it on last Monday on the Tyenna.  Got 15 fish -- one was 8", one was 8" and foul hooked.  But the other were legal to much larger.  Biggest landed was 22", with another 3 x 20"+.  For each fish hooked, failed to hook another 2 on the strike.

Also lost two motable fish.  One was easily bigger than the 22" fish.  I had it to the bank, but couldnt land it.  Another was 20"+ foul hooked on a size 16 pheasant tail.  It went airborne about 5 times, took me downstream, and went under a log.  I could touch it, but not get it out.

All fish were on bead headed nymphs -- size 16 with tungsten bead heads was the killer, though the really big one was on a simple possum bead head.
