troutlover Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I have been meaning to post this for a while but i've had fishing to do. It has been an amazing summer of fishing i spent most of my time on the BOW but it was a real treat to make it to the mountains a couple times to a magical place in banff that i belive is the only lake in Alberta that has Yellowstone cutts the golden trout is beautiful and rare but i belive the Yellowstone cutt comes in close and is more rare than the Golden, they grow big also. Im not going to mention the name of the lake if you do figure it out i ask you keep it to yourself and make others work to find it or donate a bunch of money to the Streamwatch when i donate the trip again in the next auction. . First some of the most amazing views in Banff Now for the Fish Porn. I love the colors and the spots on these fish they are truly amazing and willing because of the late spring the fishing was a little off for the stream watch trip i think we got 30 between three of us however i went up later with some of my brothas and we must of timed it perfect. I've been going to this lake for 15 years and i have never seen so many fish and fish over 20 inches it was truly epic between 5 of us we landed 170 fish. There are 4 other lakes that we fish up there one i will not talk about. But one lake we fished in the full moon for 12 to 14 inch Brookies and west slope cutts it was dark soo there are no pictures but there is nothing more amazing than fishing in the dark and the moon making the mountains glow all around with the quiet slurping of fish echoing off the lake.

monger Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Great pics. Please don't paint the fish like that. I was amazed at the fish colors when fishing in Yellowstone Park years ago. The variety of colors presented was like a bunch of different kinds of fish...it was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonvilly Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I caught a couple of yellowstone cutts while in yellowstone park. They were no where near as colorful as those fish. Love the waterfall picture as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLeod Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Very nice report ..Awesome Pictures... Just a fact.. there are several lakes in Banff that have Yellowstones and at least one has both West Slope and Yellowstones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troutlover Posted September 29, 2011 Author Share Posted September 29, 2011 Ya moral of the story on that picture is don't shoot a flare up the out house while your buddy is takin a shat ............ Flares make A LOT of smoke! Not my best idea ever but it was funny as hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
