NorCal beauty with one of our own

Fishing Fishing Reports
1

I’ve been meaning to file this report for quite a while, but the combination of being on the road and getting hit with a boatload of work upon return, prevented me from letting you all know about one of our own – MontanaMoose – and the OUTSTANDING job he did as fishing buddy, guide, tour coordinator, and hostel manager :slight_smile:

My brother (from Montana) and I wanted to experience some true northern California trout waters. Knowing 'Moose had these waters dialed, we set up a time to get together and it was game on. We were shown some stunning waters and fished 'till we dropped. 'Moose opened his home up for us and we crashed only long enough to eat and sleep and then get back to the fishing. He really went out of his way, considering he drove down from Oregon to meet us, and we now have some memories that are permanently embedded.

Way to go 'Moose! This was a real adventure!

A little hard to see, but my brother is mid cast (center right). Note to self: watch the back cast when near the bank:

The results of a nice caddis dry:

Rivers like this are true gems:

It’s really hard to leave places like this:

Although it appears this way, it’s not true. My brother cannot walk on water :slight_smile:

So, who wants to fish?

John,

For some reason, all I’m getting is red X’s where pictures should be. Would love to see them.

REE,

Hmmm… could be the web server where I keep them. I’ll move them to a different server and try again. Thanks for letting me know.

Can you see them now?

John

Thanks for the kind words John and thanks lots for coming up. I’d been wanting to show you around ‘up there’ since May when you showed me around in your neck of the woods. You’re right about a great memory forever embedded, now all we need to do is have another go at more of the same come boo clave time down that way in the fall. Great pix of the adventure too and hey, i managed to keep up with you young’uns and din’t even get a sore toe. Ok, it’s off to River Forks to look for bigger smb’s before it gets too hot here.

More ahead,

George
