Long Weekend Cutties

Splitbrow · #1 07-04-2007, 12:18 AM

Just wanted to share some pictures of some cutties we caught over the long weekend. Nice average size and good numbers. Pulled 50 into the boat from 9:30 to 3:30... 90% were all top water as they were sipping on a small hatch. Anyways lots of fun, and check out the video... I wish all fish were that easy to land (and film at the same time)

Thanx for the pics split,, and good job.. You have some nice fish there bro... I bet you had some good little scraps on you're hand there.. How bout a little more detail on the fun....

Splitbrow · #13 07-04-2007, 10:01 PM

Thanks guys it was a blast.

50BMG I will let him know you say hello...

As far as the lake guys I wish I could give ya more but I was told from a friend where to go and wouldn't want to make him mad... (he is a good fishing buddy)

Brady you would recognize the scenery, its where we talked about possibly going last fall hunting/fishing.

As far as details, originally we were trolling wet lines and doing quite well then it slowed down. Saw them sipping, switched to drys and the game was on. Oh, and one pair of sunglasses fell to the depths b/c of an aggressive hookset (quite comical)

Thanks guys...
Split.

Yup, before I saw the pics, I knew where you were.

....and well, that is all I better say about that.

Funny about the sunglasses, sure there aren't the first ones in there, and they prolly won't be the last.

Splitbrow · #15 07-05-2007, 08:13 PM

What hours you working these days? Are you at the saw or pulp?

Brady · #16 07-06-2007, 09:57 PM

Hey Split, right now I am on the 7 days a week shift, straight nights.

Oh well the paycheques are nice.

Come the end of August, I will be done for a while, and will be tramping around very close to where we met up last year, with the 'ol bow in hand. Providing the snow holds off this year, should be some good times again.

McLeod · #17 07-07-2007, 10:20 AM

Do you think there is any of those other pretty fish still in the lake ?

Splitbrow · #18 07-07-2007, 01:17 PM

Sounds good Brady, we will have to tag up, I would love to see an arrow fly through a big 6 point bull this year. I think we had a more than enough arrows when we met up last year! haha...

Should be some fish left, we released all the ones we caught

are you talking about the time in 20 feet or so of fresh snow (

) , where 2 parties were calling and met up at a T- INtersection thinking each other were elk?

Splitbrow · #20 07-07-2007, 02:32 PM

Yeah that sounds about right... hahaha, 5 quivers full of arrows could have done some real damage!

#21 07-07-2007, 03:05 PM

yeah we were on to you, and tried calling you out, LOL amazing to go from Grass one day to waist high snow in some parts the next.

Splitbrow · #22 07-07-2007, 07:41 PM

That is the joy of that area... always a challange!
