Throw back Thursday

It’s a throwback Thursday so Let’s see those pictures and stories of times gone by. I’m sure everyone has a pic or two of some memorable catches from the past, let’s see ‘em!

This is from a year ago last week.  Was fishing with my Uncle's Son on the Cowlitz and pulled this out in front of a couple dozen guide boats that were all getting skunked.  We had clients from other boats taking pics and hooting and hollering as I fought this fish and it came out of the water aver a dozen times.  Not a huge fish but after a few hours of not seeing a fish hooked, combat fishing and dealing with torrential down pours and high winds it was satisfying to hook it in a spot where the guides kept passing by.

First steelhead on a fly rod on the Deschutes in Oregon. About 1999 I think.



 Boot November chum from the Sky. Tons of fun on a fly rod.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Heres a smattering from over the years.
