    Hello Xavier and welcome ...
    Nice fish...is that a native Rainbow? You must be on the West side.
    Many on this site may not realize but some of the small streams in North west Mexico at one time had small native Steelhead returns. I have read that there is a movement to restore these waterways..

    Thanks for sharing your picture
    C
    And very nice flies.

    Welcome to the site.
    There are great people here.
    Thanks for showing the pictures.
    I have been to Mexico a couple times and lived in Barra de Navidad for a year.
    Beba las porciones de cerveza, camarón, pesca, practicando surf.

    Thanks everyone for the welcome

    Rick, yep that is river very close to where I live, maybe 45 min drive

    Ross, I´m from the central part of Mexico, Puebla to be precise

    2fly, it is a native strain of rainbow trout htey never lose their parr markings it took a cream caddis pupa

    Salar, in fact there are about 5 diferent native trout species in Mexico, but people around here do not realiza the potential of our streams, which is good in the sense that they are not very pressured hehehe

    Knot not, I also used to surf but in Zicatela down in puerto escondido hehe

    Welcome Xavier. I just joined myself and judging from what I have seen the people on this site are very knowlegable. I am sure if you have the question I am sure someone or many will have the answer.
