  1. Great shots Jeff. Bull trout don't feed after June 15 however.

    Love the sucker shots. We have one with a buddy sticking his tongue in one's mouth. It's a classic.

    Looks like another great trip full of smiles

  2. This is actually pretty common for guys who fish lakes often. A couple of years ago my boat mate got shocked a couple of times when the storm was still about 4 miles away. It was heading our way and we quickly got of the water before it reached us. At the boat launch just about everyone had a story of getting shocked at one time or another. I have seen lightning strike quite often a few miles in front of the storm front. I guess it is better to leave earlier rather than later.

  3. Wow, a bunch of old guys (excluding Tim) crowded around Golden pond trying to catch the big one ... I should have been there with a movie camera..... where's Walter....

    Looks like you had fun.

     

    I was stuck at another pond catching chromers on dries. Did you guys see any caddis at BH?

  4. Great fish Lorney! It looks like a female to me. Females get dark as well for spawning. Is it possible the fluid released was from the eggs breaking down inside her? She looks like she is already past peak egg size time and on her way to cleaning up.

     

    Male triploids will still go through the morphological changes that come with spawning ( while the females stay chrome). They are however sterile.

  5. Thanks Tim, they are almost as ugly as me. My buddy said it would be the only boot he ever takes a picture of...he was too grossed out. You should have heard the moaning from him when I brought that fish into his boat.

    I'm taking the camera out today for some triploid pictures. We'll see if chrome looks better that dirty gray/red.
