Just A Couple Of Pictures

Same one as above

Or this:

So I'll tell you about Bear River Reservoir. I got there at 11:00am and set up one rod with rainbow Power Bait and the other I put a cricket (sssssh) under a bobber. While I was soaking both, I took a few pictures of the lake for your enjoyment.

OK, nothing on bobber rig so I put out a second rainbow Power Bait, but this time with a little sweet corn scent. Forty five minutes and nothing so I reeled in the one with the sweet corn and this Crawdad was attached.

The hook was lightly attached to the abdomen.

Guy could get a job with Ringling Brothers.

OK, so the line was wrapper around a claw or four. I grabbed him behind the head and untangled the line while he kept pinching the pliers. You don't think I was going to put my fingers in there, do you?

I finally got him unstrung and put him back into the lake. He was such a good sport I couldn't put the Crawdad crunch on him. Now that I think about it, he was about the size of the lobster tails that Safeway was selling this past weekend for $5.00 apiece. Maybe I should have kept him. Does he count as a non-skunk catch? He was the only thing coming out of Bear today.

All right, short and sweet. Not sure where I'm off to next, but I'll let you know.
