awesome Jim, you're right about the cold weather coming up, night temps in the 'teens aren't far away, I'm not happy about it! Looks like we have one more week or so from now of good fishing than things are going to get tough. I'm gonna make the most of it. Great pictures, Like the brookie & fly rod pic especially.Is that a caddis larva nymph you have there in the last picture? can't tell.
You've had another banner year Jim. You certainly had a variety of species and covered a lot of territory, even leaving the state a few times. I enjoyed your great camera work.Save a date this winter for a smelt trip to my tidal shack.
Nice fish Jim. I think we fished the same spot a time or two late last month.
Thank you for sharing the pictures.I always wondered since splake are not sterile if there is any worry about backcrossing with native brook trout?
