Finally got a chance to head over to Chandler and chase the rainbows. Good morning but really cold. Only 30 degrees when I got to cast out the first line. Took an easy limit. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/uiIp4U5.jpg) Biggest was about 10 1/2 inches. Smallest about 8. Typical stocker size for that lake. 3 of them fell to a silver kastmaster and 2 fell to fireballs fished weightless. Missed a couple strikes on the kastmaster as well. Hands were cold and my reflexes suffered. Tonite is trout and venison for supper. A true redneck surf and turf. Life is good here in East Texas. Cheers Y'All and Happy Holidays to all who read these words.

Beauties. Nice job Flags.  Side Note: Sounds like a great dinner planned.

Congratulations Flags That there is a great bunch of stocker trout. Great report. Only thing I'm a bit confused about is "Amarillo-East Texas". Did Amarillo move? Never mind, I had to look up Chandler on Google maps.
