Post your first fish of 2025 here

[Evan B]

If you have a pic or not, post in here once your first of 2025 comes to hand.

Maybe this will inspire me to get out sooner than later.

 

[_WW_]

Mine will come in March.

Wade river started a post in Trips…maybe move or merge. He had a couple beautiful bull trout to share

First fish of the year was a brook trout.

No photos because I have barely begun to understand how to land a fish on a tenkara rod, so here it is on the spreadsheet:

God damn, are you batting 1000 for the year?!

 

[mcswny]

This beautiful whitey was my first.

 

[J Watrous]

God damn, ate you batting 1000 for the year?!

Ha, yeah. But only because I got very very lucky this morning with a sea run. Last year it took me until end of January to catch one in MA 9.

I don’t expect to see another for a while.

Very underrated fish.

Decent fight on light gear and, if big, tasty.

Happy new year!

Way to rub salt in the wound I’m still licking. I got out Saturday and got an honest skunking. I hate starting a year out that way. Oh well. I’m still glad it’s an odd numbered year. Slimers are out there and I will be ready. I gotta get on the board sooner than that though.

@ColinShots and I barely escaped the skunk with high and dirty water. I’m pretty sure the fish we caught was on what’s normally the bank.

 

[Bambooflyguy]

Well…. As I said on the dry fly lake challenge, I’m 3/6 and going back for more.

 

[ColinShots]

@mcswny was absolutely positive neither of us would catch a fish…

First fish I have a pic of. SRC from Sunday.



Fished a lake Friday for a few hours and went 1-3. Landed a 12 stocker bow I did not take a pic of .

Headless 00(Peyton) - beautiful steelhead!

Better than a skunking I guess

Better than a skunking I guess

Yes. Yes it is.
is me

However my soccer team won tonight 3-1 against a strong rival team so I am feeling better about 2025.
