Wind River Trout

I am always on the lookout for big fish stories and found this great one from the Salt Lake Tribune. This woman caught an enormous lake trout on a fly in the Wind River mountains in Wyoming:

I am always jealous of stories like this. I never seem to have issues catching fish but they never have much size to them…hopefully soon!

iPhone wallpapers

I recently got an iPhone and really enjoy the camera. I like the colors it captures. I have recently taken a few outdoor themed photos that make nice wallpapers feel free to download them if you like.


This photo is some grass from my frontyard covered with hoarfrost.

This is one side of my nymph box…


This is the other side.

Winter storm

Today we got a pretty good snow in the Salt Lake Valley. About 4-5 inches I would guess are on the ground at my house. I had to go run some errands tonight and it was pretty slow going, but got most of what I need to done. I am hoping to get out fishing next week after Christmas but snow doesn’t bother me too much. I recall one winter fishing outing where the outer fabric of my neoprene waders froze solid at the knees as I was standing in shallower water. I had to gingerly hobble back into the river to thaw the ice and then remembered to keep moving!
