SteveM Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 The last high country trip in October... The cutties were really fattening up for the winter... Gorgeous colors... The leaves were sporting their fall colors, too... Not sure what tried to eat this guy; he had a couple of these partially healed gashes... (More to come...) Quote
SteveM Posted December 6, 2010 Author Posted December 6, 2010 Hit the Bow a couple times after work last week. Got lots of these... Only one of these...(I did hook a +20"er on my fifth cast on Wednesday; he jumped, fought for a minute or two, then LDR'ed) Saw lots of this... Caused by these... It was definitely worth it to fish 'til after dark! Worm was king! Quote

Bandi Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Superb autumn colors Steve. (Haven't seen so many cutties for a while.) That cutty pig looks fake, but what do I know. They may eat spherize nymph up in high country. Keep them coming. Quote

FraserN Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Nice pictures. When cutties "roll" a dry fly on the surface, sometimes they miss. I have hooked them in the exact spot where the scar is on your fish. I suspect the injury is from a fly hook. Quote
monger Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 Naw, it's just where Steve usually snags them when bait fishing (then he tries to blame it on some 'natural' event) Thanks for the photos. It's time for the Burb fest soon Quote

I suppose it's possible; but, it's a pretty big gash & there was a second one close to the tail??? Quote
