Since I'm back in the groove again with getting out and now posting reports I thought I'd post a few more pics from some of the outings the Kid took with his buddies while Dad was laid up.
A couple of trips were to the South Fork of the Snake when it was so cold your fly line was the size of a pencil, while another was to the lower Henry's Fork.
The winter has either been extremely cold or quite snowy so the conditions haven't been ideal. But I like the fishing when there's a good front moving through - seems like the fish really pick up and the bite is usually quite good.
Anyway, here are a few pics. I won't be getting out for a week or so due to the rehab on the ankle as well as getting ready for some fly-tying demos and shows that are upcoming.
I did just get an invite from LaMoyne Hyde of Hyde Driftboats to head out to Montana's Big Horn River for a few days, and that should take place in the next week or so, so I'm really pumped for that one! Can't wait to share it with all of you.
I have some special pics here for our good friend Ron Eagle Elk, as I know how much he 'loves' whitefish!:mrgreen:
Enjoy:

Whitefish with a mouth full 'o 'Big Ugly', but I just don't understand how they actually, physically do it?!

Doesn't this look like one of those runs you'd like to find yourself in the middle of during winter?

That's it, hope you liked it.
Tight Lines all!
