Summer in the Hills 2012

[black hills tj]

How about a local picture thread guys? I know there have been some impressive catches on open water this year.  *cough*Gouldin*cough*Oyler*cough, cough*

Yeah, I know there is a whole forum for pictures on MFF, but I'd rather set something up for the locals.  These are from various trips.  I'll post more trip specific pictures as I take them.  Tight lines!

My goofy ass and some 'bows at the Pac










We aren't always fun and games...we get serious sometimes too!  Fishing was slow and weather was hot, so we taught my little brother how to ski!

My sons first eye of the year at orman.


31in eye my brother-in-law found dead at orman!


And I already had some pics at angy and I hope we get more this weekend!!

So the big eye was dead?  Seems weird...

[jgouldin]

Ya we found it dead and not very old when we found it the gills still had some red in them  would guess 12 to 24 hours.

Because it's worth seeing again...Gouldin's eye!

Was back in Rapid for the weekend and couldn't NOT go fishing.  So my dad and I went to Sheridan.
