Cutbow Trout

Caught a couple of decent smallies down deep, and was hoping to make it a multispecies day. Finally right around sunset a nice cutbow made it happen. One of these days I’ll add a walleye to the mix and make it a horsetooth slam.

Been pulling some really nice ones out of one of my favorite places to fish on earth lately!

Put Cameraman Bill on a fat old boy on Thursday night. Open water season is back, frankly!

This was last week. It was one of those days with moody clouds and ever changing light that kept me reaching for my phone for another picture. It had been a good while since I’d caught a big one, and my fishing ego was in need of a decent catch. I was jigging around 50 feet deep when I drifted over a good mark around 30 deep. I reeled up to it and it was on like donkey kong! A great cutbow. I caught one more trout to round out the day, and finished with an epic sunset.

Managed a decent one to kick off open water. More tomorrow. Let's go!

Beautiful cutbows, scenery, and a beautiful day in the hills! The lakers were a bonus. Praise be!

Bute!!!!! back in the water, we made a deal that she won’t strange looking items until I come back in the spring
