Fly Fishing Sometimes Nets a 24-Inch Rainbow on 5-Weight 2-Pound Tippet Fishing Outdoor Sports Restaurants Travel News AmericanPresstravelNews–February 27th, Bob and Barb “On the Road Again” & Stopping to Wet a Line! So here we were on the Chattahoochee River at a Restaurant. Well, as I always carry my fly rod along I decided to head down to the river and drop a hopper! Well, this 24-inch rainbow had to have it. It took a bunch of reel and rod moves, but got it for a pic and release. Frankly, one of the best fights I had on my early Orvis graphite rod I have now for the past 46-years. My little CFO handled it, I got lucky and the tippet 2-pound test didn’t hit any rocks. I still have Georgia on my mind for this year too! Nice that from my TN. farm “Goose Holler'” its only a few hour drive to some great Blue Ridge streams and rivers.
