Highlights of the week:
Every angler has their favorite, trusted lure that they carry around with them everywhere. Our friend Julio followed his guide’s advice, and didn’t change out his fly all week - you could say he found his new favorite! Within ten minutes of fishing on day one, he already landed a twenty pound bass and kept hooking nice fish all week with that same fly. Julio will not be caught without that in his fly box from this day forward. Congratulations, Julio!
