General Rifle Opener

Since it was the opener of the general rifle deer season here in Utah, we figured there was nothing better we could do than to go catch fish.  Curt and Tyson made a plan and headed for the water.  Fish should be in the shallows by now with the cooler weather we've finally had the last little bit.  The hypothesis was correct, at least early in the AM.  Weather man said that early it would be in the 40's and snowing.  We were prepared, but pleasantly surprised to find mostly clear skies and jacket weather.  Couldn't have asked for anything better.  This was Curt's first stillwater experience for trout.  Literally two minutes in he was hooked up with a cutt.  Not long after that, we were both hooked up again and Curt had a real nice fish on. For about an hour the action was steady, but then it died.  It was a great day to be on the water and not 5 minutes after we loaded up the vehicle to head home the storm was on us and the weather turned nasty.  It was great timing to call it a day.

This one must have been part muskie....or maybe just all cutt!
