"Fall" trout fishing

[DeerTracker]

Didnt feel much like fall with temps in the 80s but it was good to get out. About a week ago, I met up with a buddy and fished the Swan River. We fished for about 5 hours and caught 6 or 7 between the two of us. My fish handling skills were horrible today and all but one fish flopped back in the water before I could hold it for a picture. To me, not many things beat seeing a deep green hole and making that first cast not knowing what you might hook into. A bonus on the day was seeing more wolf tracks than I have ever seen in my life. So I plan on going back this fall or winter and seeing if I can call in 1 or 5!

Nice photos! Looks like a mighty fine fishing trip.

I don't seem to take many photos while fishing. Seems like I can either fish, or take photos. If I do both, I'm afraid the camera will end up in the water!

Best of luck on the wolves this winter!

Thank you! It was fun, although very smoky. I had a GoPro strapped to my chest and my phone was in my pocket. I only turned the GoPro on a couple times and only took two pictures all day. I was enjoying the fishing instead of worrying about getting a good picture. I had a couple really close calls trying to take a picture of myself holding bass this spring while standing in waist deep water...phones are too expensive to replace so I was always nervous. Guess I need to invest in a LifeProof case for my new phone. Had one for my old Iphone and it was awesome! It could be totally submerged and be fine!

A day spent on a lovely river catching the local piscatorial residents adds years to life. Beautiful pictures of a great day. Bad year for fishing for me. I haven't been out once, and a licence only costs me $1! All my tackle stayed dry.

That looks like a really nice river to fish and beautiful rainbows. It's nice to see you posting more again, your threads are always interesting.

Thank you! This was the first time I've fished it but won't be the last!
