Fishing for Salmon in the Yemen

Finally got one y'all!  Words cannot describe the excitement of catching my first fish with a fly.  This time of year the Provo River has some pretty good hatches in the evening time, and last week during one of these hatches I finally got one, and three casts later a second!  They weren't huge, maybe 11 inches but size didn't matter by this point.  And the next day of course, I found myself at Cabellas buying a fly rod and other fly fishing garb.  It's been a very fun hobby to get into over the summer: a little frustrating, time consuming, kind of expensive, but very peaceful and well worth that long awaited first catch!
