Stimbo good luck this week call if you need anything. I might be able to meet for an evening session this week I will let you know.

Could you come by and throw some chum into the lake where I am fishing?

Looking forward to the report, hope it goes well!

Those fish are beautiful.


So are boats and/or float tubes not allowed at Pyramid? Just curious because I never seen them in all of your pics?

Thanks Fritz, and good luck to you Stimbo. I have a feeling you'll get a hog.

Well, no hogs caught by our group but plenty of "hog-lets." If you caught them on any other body of water you would be ecstatic but at Pyramid, they seem puny. No complaints though, every hookup was exciting. We fished two and a half days and caught them mainly on midges with an occasional cutty taken on stripped beetles. It was a great time, I cannot wait to return.

1. Nice fish Jim! I've never caught anything remotely close to something that large. Well done. Glad you got some quality time with some quality fish and your son.

2. WTF that is an amazing offer. Truly appreciated. I will talk to Limpingcrab and we'll see if we can make it happen!

3. Limpingcrab CALL ME!

OK WTF, limpingcrab and I got the green light from our wives and we are good to go! I repeat, we are good to go. We would love to have you show us around up there. Neither of us have fished that kind of water ever and despite our lifetime trout addiction this will be the first time throwing rigs of that size for trout of that size.

My cell number is (559) nine seven four - 2662.
Or email me at jetthousehold@gmail.com

Would you mind calling or texting (or email.... whatever is easiest for you) so we can get some details? Really looking forward to it. Thank you again in advance for the offer. And our apologies if we catch all the big fish and leave none for anybody else that day.

Ya WTF, we really appreciate the offer and sorry if it was just a courtesy invite that you hoped we wouldn't accept :)

Stimbo! Nice fish, great photos!

WTF! Oh man, it sounds like an ugly day for you. I've never actually broken a rod while fishing. I prefer to slam them in car doors. As for line freezing in the guides, I used to hate it when that happened. Now, I just quit fishing & go someplace warmer.

Winter lingers on in Idaho. Avid anglers have been reduced to desperation fishing in our abundant spring potholes.

WTF that's great! Give me a holler any time this evening.
Got back in and stuck a couple more missed several and froze my nuts off.

Sounds perfect.

This winter on the Lower Kings I took a swim while air temp was right around 33 degrees out. Had to call Limpingcrab to bring me dry clothes. He lives fifteen minutes from the river and was there for me in my time of need.

And here I was thinking that there wouldn't be anything but a few little brookies in that pot hole.

Those potholes are decieving...sometimes you hook up with a lunker brown who is feeding on the brookies. Fritz told me he once got a four kilo brown out of a pothole with a garden rake.

Stimbo that would be a blast. That would be a whole lot of Supertopo for one little lake!
