Default Good day yesterday!

The stream closures lead me a place on the elbow I have been driving by for years and I had a blast! lots of action. I might need a bigger net!

Wow! Really great catches for the Elbow. Much bigger than I have caught or seen above the reservoir.

Unfortunately that is the truth.

Nice catch for sure and good for the OP but there is no benefit to hot spotting.
We would have enjoyed the pics just as much with out the name.

Nice cutties for sure. I haven't seen to many on the elbow. Mostly brookies for me. There are some big bulls in there along with some big whitefish
