I have given this a rating of 5 because my wife and I have not fished since 1970. This morning we hit the lake a 7 AM, and I used a black wet fly and she used a Wedding Ring, both with a small split shot and 50' of line out. I was hesitant about the black fly and don't why I have had it in my tackle box for over 40 years. I know that I had never used it. The Wedding Ring we bought a couple of weeks ago. We started off trolling as slow as possible and after 15 minutes had our first fish in a long time (36 years) a nice 12" rainbow. After that it was one fish about every 15 minutes for the first hour. Then nothing for the next hour. Then 6 fish in the next hour and we were done by 10 AM. All fish ran from 11" to 12 1/2". We had a great time and will not wait another 36 years to fish again.
