Deep Creek 01-05-2013

Rick and I went back up to Deep Creek where we wet up with Bruce for our first fishing trip of 2013. Bruce had already caught some Bow's before we arrived. It was a slow fishing day for us.

 

 

 The ice had gotten a lot thicker since last time we were there and it was nice to have Bruce's power auger.

Rick and I went to Deep Creek to fish with Bruce, his son Tom, and brother Matt.

In the afternoon it started warming up, and it got a little slushy.

I ended the day with this nice Rainbow.

Henry's Fork 11-02-2012

I can't believe it's going on five months since I blogged last.

Sam and I made a run to the Henry's Fork last November in hopes of catching some big pre-spawn Browns on streamers. We caught a fair number of trout, mostly Rainbows, but no huge Browns. We arrived to a nice crisp fall morning.

 

Sam didn't waste any time getting down to the water.

 

After the shadows retreated off the water, it started warming up. 

 

First Brown of the day. 

 

And a health little Rainbow.

 

These are some of the big streamers we started out casting, latter in the day we scaled down to about 1/3 the size and seamed to do a little better, but these do have there place when the big fish arrive.

 

Note to self, bend down the barb on this one.

 

 

In the afternoon we moved down below the bridge and did  pretty well, catch some nice Browns and Bows, but still no monsters.

 

Chesterfield 10-20-2012

Rick and I went to Chesterfield a week after I had fished it. We fought the wind most of the day, but was able to hook into a few nice ones.

 

 

After a little break we decided to wade out, and cast, this technique actually worked very well. 

 

 

 

 

Chesterfield 10-13-2012

I made a run up to Chesterfield for the first time since I fished it last spring, and it did not disipoint me, as you will see in the pictures below. I went by myself. The pictures were taken using the the timer on the camera that was mounted to the frame of the boat.

This is looking west, but the sunrise colored the sky from east to west.

 

 

What this fish lacked in length, it made up for in girth.
