I'm going to say that bow fought pretty hard and took drag. Not sure what size tippet you were using with the streamer but trout this time of year seem to fight harder than the early spring.
Thanks. I was using 9ft 5x, but after many fly changes it was probably closer to 4x by that time. Surprisingly water temp was mid 60s. Wondering if there was an underground spring where he was hanging out. Water was very slow and not deep.
