I arrived at the Rainbow Pools rec area around 6:30am. The fishing was nice for a few hours until the crowds showed up. It was a hot day and there were a lot of people swimming in the area. Made fishing a little difficult.
I wandered as far upstream as I could safely go. This was the only way to get away from the people. There were some decent sized rainbows, probably 18 inch or slightly larger in the deeper pools. One pool was around 12 feet deep and you could see more than a dozen trout actively eating. Sorry I can't be more specific. I simply don't know how to accurately describe it. It was no more than 1/2 mile upstream from the parking lot.
I was able to catch a half dozen or so fish, the largest was around 15 inches. Again, it was an assortment of wet flies that got the most interest. Soft hackle hare's ear are always good producers.
Fish count: Under 10
