Here is this week’s images from the water. With the weather changing, it might be the last one for a while. As I write this post on Wednesday morning, I’m looking out at the snow falling. I hope you enjoy this week’s portfolio.

These large Rainbows are out there, but not on my line! It was over 20″!

I love the reflection from the ripples created by lifting the fish from the water.

I could hear them from across the river after locating a Bull Trout hidden in the brush.

I really enjoy finding Dippers on the river.
