went to one of my favorite spots with a buddy, he's pretty new to fly fishing but managed to land 5 out of maybe 20 bites.

I probably had double that many bites and landed 14 in a couple hours. many dries, but caddis were hot. Also landed a couple on a wet royal coachman.

first and third lake both fished well

It's pretty up there, well worth the hike.

BEAUTIFUL landscapes and beautiful little pure west slopes. I really wonder who would eat THAT even though the limit's 2

Love the color on the ones from the third lake, this lil fella was one of the smallest of the trip, biggest was maybe 10". biggest I've ever had there was maybe 13"

Thanks for the pics, it's been a few years since I've booted it up there.

You know Spin"n I hate to pick on you but sometimes just stop and think.

Do you think that just because there is a limit of 2 that everyone who catches a fish at Picklejar or elsewhere where there is a limit keeps the fish.
I know a good many people that just CnR just because they love the whole fishing, hiking exploring thing. Nothing wrong with keeping fish when legal, but I am sure these guys were'nt thinking of feeding their family with 10 inch fish.

Thanks for sharing the pics Flieguy.
