FINALLY, after many failed attempts at trying to sight fish for these on the fly at my local creek, I came up with something today. I caught it on my 5 wt with a Zug Bug.  They have really pretty color and I love the hints of red on them. Not very big, but very rewarding.  Now I must ask, do you guys know what kind of sucker this is? I was thinking is was a Redhorse sucker, but I'm not sure.

That is a Trinity River Salmon. Also known as a bugle mouth bass.
From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."
Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!

Nice going. It is always more rewarding to overcome a challenge. Zug bug is one of my favorites.
