Finally got out for a bit of bow action....

[Burtess]

With work and the kids etc. etc. etc..... I havn't had any time to get out fishing this fall.

 

I took the day off today and decided to try a trib I had never fished before. Only saw one other fellow out this morning and after that I was all by myself (which does me just fine!).

 

Had two on and lost them, one was a biggin' and fully straightened a #12 Mustad Wide Gap (mental note, must go back to the Raven Specialist). This was more or less an exploratory mission as I seemed to do more walking and checking out this flow than fishing.

 

Did land this pretty lady though.

 

It sure was nice to get out again!!

Had me fooled, as I was thinking a bow deer hunt.

 

Nice fish Burt.

Nice fish.... I have the same Stanton... It's a beast, but it does a number on your wrist after a long day of fishing !!!

Nice fish man. It's good you could get out! It's hard to get time in the water with a young family, I hear you there.
