BG seems to be "The Man" when it comes to fly fishing. Makes me wonder about the photos he hasn't shown us (yet).
Confession: I sometimes think fishing is more fun than climbing...but I never let on.

Not a trout, but a trophy. We fished Lac Des Isle in Saskatchewan this summer.

Apparently, the park rangers were expecting us. This was inside the camp:

It was 10 degrees this morning, so I waited until things warmed up before heading out. I was expecting an afternoon of dinks, but to my surprise I landed two nice 'bows. Enjoy.

Crowley is closed for the season however Hot Creek, PVR, Upper and Lower Owens are open year 'round. Upper O is the answer you are looking for.

Nice Drum, RA!!!
I keep trying to get one when I visit my parents in Florida. I caught a little one last year, undersized.
Nice Northern upthread too!
(I don't think people mind non-trout posts...)

Caught and released this 45 lb. king salmon while fly fishing on the Smith River in northern California on Thursday. The battle was epic- lasted 40 minutes!

Bob has another lucky catch!
EDIT: Rattlesnake, I know a master fisherman when I see one. Bob is one of the very best.

Very impressive, BG. Upriver kings don't eat flies without some coaxing.

I suspect its not just luck..
Had any luck throwin' flies at the native steelies in the Smith? Some of them have shoulders...

Never fished for steelhead, but I'm thinking of giving it a try on the Smith River this winter. They're already in on the Chetco River just to the north, and the next big rain should have them shooting up the Smith. The California state record steelhead (27 pounds) was caught on the Smith, and the run of big, wild steelhead remains strong there, although they are known to be elusive and not easy to catch.
