Suntech Field Master returns to the Peñasco

Here's a pic of a typical 8-inch brown from my return trip to the Rio Peñasco with the Suntech Field Master. The 11-incher I caught and released on my first trip is still the largest I've caught with the rod. The Utah Killer Bug is still working its magic, and I also had success with a hare's ear nymph. I caught three browns today when I give the flies a little action - it seemed to be more effective than a dead drift.

As age slows my pace, I will become more like the heron.
