SteveM Posted August 22, 2010 Posted August 22, 2010 Some recent pics... Now that's indicator fishing! My buddy told me the trout at Upper K were hitting his indy more than his fly. So, I treated an egg fly with floatant & used it as an indy with a nymph underneath; couldn't keep them stocked cutties of it! Upper K resident mooch... Staying close to Mom... Yep, flowers... And bugs... (more to come...) Quote
SteveM Posted August 22, 2010 Author Posted August 22, 2010 Fish food... I may have taken a wee bit too long getting a pic of this bull trout before I released it; I think he was OK, though... For some reason, coffee tastes better in this mug... Wee creek-caught brown on Green Drake... Tiny 'bow on ant pattern... My bro' takes a break for lunch in a purty spot... I watched this whitefish come up & eat this big foam fly about 5 feet from me; not sure how he fit it in that little mouth, but he got it first try... This brookie ate the same fly; seems to have a deformed gill plate... (still more coming...) Quote
SteveM Posted August 22, 2010 Author Posted August 22, 2010 Cutty on soft hackle wetfly... Up close... Releasing a nice brown... Pretty fish... Hoary marmots... Barn swallows... Artsy-fartsy moss & water shot... That is all. Quote
soggysocks63 Posted August 22, 2010 Posted August 22, 2010 Lol...That's where the rest of Pennywises hair went! Thanks for sharing the pics, looks like some place I'd rather be Quote

CF8 Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Very nice pics! Thanks for the enjoyable post... Quote
Bandi Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Great photos, Steve. Indeed, I like that there is more than fish. The day before, I had same situation with the indy and forgot my big hoppers in the car... for next time I am tying some yellow indicators with a hook hidden in it. Quote
Guest galsfishtoo Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Very nice shots Steve, as always! Thanks for sharing. Quote
Christofficer Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 At a quick glance, I thought "hoary marmot" said something else....... Nice pics. Quote
beedhead Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Great pics!!!...Thanx for sharing... Cheers...Jeff.. Quote
SteveM Posted August 24, 2010 Author Posted August 24, 2010 Great photos, Steve. Indeed, I like that there is more than fish. The day before, I had same situation with the indy and forgot my big hoppers in the car... for next time I am tying some yellow indicators with a hook hidden in it. My buddy had been there with his kids a couple days earlier & was getting lots of hits on his indy. He tied on a small indy with a hook and a small weight so his kid could cast it with a spincast outfit. She caught a bunch of small cutties & one that he described as a 5 lb'er. Gotta give them fishies what they want... Quote
reevesr1 Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Nice pictures buddy, as always. And as always too many damn flower shots, but I understand you didn't really have that many fish to take pictures of. Quote
darrinhurst Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Mr. Loblaw, In the future, when you catch a nice Bull Trout, please refrain from lying it on the dry rocks as it will remove it slime coat and it could subject it to infection. Other than that, wicked Bully! Quote

Other than that, wicked Bully! Someday, if I take enough pics, I will get the ultimate fish pic by which all other fish pics will be judged. If a few hundred bull trout have to be sacrificed in the process...; well, you know what they say about having to break eggs to make an omelet... Quote
