Finally got to go fly fishing for the first time. Thanks to a good guide, I was able to land two very nice trout and two small smallies. The smallies hit on the trout fly in moving water (thought my gopro was on, but it was locked up, so I didn't get pics)
Here are the trout. The larger one was 3-4 pounds according to the guide. No kayak this trip, we used his float boat. Wading for the smaller one and the larger one was floating. I should have told him how to focus on my camera...

The Guadalupe? Surprising that the trout were active in this heat. But good on ya for hooking a few.

Thanks. Trout are doing great in that cold water up near the damn. Not sure how far down the river they go. We started early and fished til noon, so no tubers until we were finishing up. Was an awesome time. Guide said the larger one was bigger than he had ever caught on the river. I'm hooked.
