Wild Trout and 3wt

In anticipation of new 3wt blanks arriving soon, Dave Skok and I went yesterday to play around with some wild trout and the prototype 3wt. The prototype rod was a great perfomer in tight quarters, and new 7'6" 3wt blanks should come even more handy for backpacking into remote places. The place we fished wasn't too far from Boston, and has a population of native brook trout and wild browns. The fish were small but beautiful. We mostly fished buggers and nymphs, but caught quite a few on skittering caddis dries. There were sporadic Hendrickson, Small Brown Stone and Grannom hatches throughout the warmest part of the day.
