Fish also seen in deeper pools. Saw two yellowfish of about 24 and over 30” in a wood pile. Unable to tempt them to the fly. The most remarkable thing about the outing was the size of rainbows and yellows seen. The one yellow in particular is the largest of its sort that I have ever seen above the village. | | | | | GENERAL | | | Birds: | | | Flora: | | | Insects: | No hatch |
