This last weekend I went to Flaming Gorge with some friends to fish for the weekend. I did to expect to be a die hard, but it ended up being that way! We spent all day, I mean ALL day on the boat trying to catch Lake Trout. It takes a lot of patience, so it was difficult for me! It was such an amazing time, especially since I had only caught 2 fish in my whole life prior to this weekend. The final count was 16 small mouth bass, 6 rainbow trout, and 2 lake trout. Not to shabby!
24 pounds of Lake Trout! Yeah buddy!
Marc and I with my first Rainbow. I did not want to hold it beause he was flopping all over the place! (I look a little wind-blown, yuck!)
Action photo of reeling in my big one! It took a good 10 minutes to get him in the boat. My arms killed!
This is my 21 pound Lake Trout. Not quite as impressive! But not too bad!
Releasing him back.
