SteveM Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Well, BigBowtrout may not be classy, but he does have a classy-lookin' reel... ...'twas nice fishin' with ya, Chris! Quote
bigbowtrout Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Twas a fun morning for sure and thanks for being a good net and camera man. But I don't know how often I can handle getting up at 4am and fishing till 8:30am but the looks on peoples faces when you're leaving the water when they're arriving is priceless. Quote
Swede Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 What an awesome shot Steve. Only thing its missing is an ad selling something fly fishing related. lol Quote
canadensis Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Did he try to stuff this one down his trousers? Quote

How did you feel at 2 PM? I was dragging a bit. It was a fun morning guys, thanks! Quote
SteveM Posted April 19, 2010 Author Posted April 19, 2010 How did you feel at 2 PM? I was dragging a bit. It was a fun morning guys, thanks! Sucks gettin' old, don't it, Tex? Be thankful you didn't have to work the 3-11pm shift, like me... I only managed this 18"er after y'all left... ...then I fished my way up to the car(no luck) & headed to another spot. After a bunch of fly changes (many of which were forced by the sacrifice of nymph rigs to the fish gods-GRRR!), I finally started hooking up on a tiny olive Tungstud. First fish I hooked was a 20"+ brown that went airborne 3 times; got him right to the net a couple times before the hook pulled out. Sure put on a show & fought hard with several big runs; of course, I didn't get a pic, so Canadensest won't believe this. LDR'ed a decent rainbow & one more fish that I never saw( pretty sure it was over 30", though). Wink-wink Quote
Hawgstoppah Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 That is one of the finest pictures to ever show up here, well done! Quote
jonn Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 Sweet pic, what type of camara do you use, dslr or a p & s? Quote
SteveM Posted April 20, 2010 Author Posted April 20, 2010 That is one of the finest pictures to ever show up here, well done! Thanks, Brian! I think it's 'cuz Chris has such pretty hands... That pic doesn't even do that trout justice. It was a perfect specimen; deep & thick & flawless. Gorgeous! Quote
SteveM Posted April 20, 2010 Author Posted April 20, 2010 Sweet pic, what type of camara do you use, dslr or a p & s? Hey, Jonny; I use an Olympus Stylus 850SW. It's a shockproof, waterproof p & s. Quote
SanJuanWorm Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 That fish is well over 25" long. BBT has giant sausage fingers. Quote

bhurt Posted April 21, 2010 Posted April 21, 2010 Your Mom likes to roll play and next week she wants me to dress like a tight end from the 49'ers!!! should be fun If that is what you like then good for you. Oh by the way I heard the type of pirate was the famous Ars Pirate and that you once dressed up as the "Sea"man from the village people. Quote
