highdrifter Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 Hi gang, Billy-Curtiss and myself fished the back lakes this weekend for brookies. A friend of Billy's has a trap line up this old logging road and had invited Billy to come up for a few days.. so of course I invited myself up too!! Our efforts were hampered by the extremes.. Deep snow.. a foot of slush on the lakes.. and some bone chillin cold.. We even had a little visit from the law on Saturday and he made us empty the last of our beers.. But we did have an incredible experience.. And I even managed to ice the one fish of the weekend. A FAT 21 incher! I'll just save the banter. It's been a heck of day, and we all know why were here. Hardcore fish porn!! Billy-Curtiss breaking trail to the camp. Ya like my new kicks?! They're made with authentic babish! First lake we fished, just a little ways from the camp. The snow would come later that night.. The calm before the storm.. It was incredible! We had a wolf cross the lake just as Dan poked through with his sled. We were hauling the gear behind him ahahah! Here's what really made the trip.. My personal best brookie!! A cookie cutter speck (the lake is stocked), but she tasted just as good.. We'll leave the best lakes for the spring, when we won't have to worry about covering our tracks. Had to get the halos.. Shame it wasn't a wild fish.. Billy: "Is there something funny about my beard??" Dan: "Where's your fro comb?!" Saw a bald eagle feeding on some carrion a little ways into the logging road. It wasn't until we were making our way back into town when we found out what it was the bird was feeding on. No meal here can be passed up, however gruesome. I was feeling queezy after seeing this.. your imagination tends to wander.. Just a puppy too from the looks of it.. Here's another puppy.. Dan's dog. An Argentine Dogo! A fine animal, once it warmed up to us. 10 months old, and 105lbs!! Just awesome. I'm a man of few words. Gnight everybody!! luv, HD
Leecher Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 Great report and pics Highdrifter Une très belle speck que tu as pris Félicitation Je ne pense pas que ce loup était un petit car ces pattes sembles grosse pour cette animal. Je pense plutôt qu'il était vieux et c'est pour ça qu'il est devenue la proie Looks like you guys had a blast and again great job you guys Thanks for sharing Jacques

Every time I see that face in a pic it reminds me of the song "Psycho Killer" by the Talking Heads! Dan: "Where's your fro comb?!"

Mike the Pike Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 Good report I had no idea an eagle was that powerful
Joey Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 What a great report Fidel. That is an awesome fish. Very cool pics Wonder what took down that animal? Well, life goes on tho and I imagine it fed a slew of other animals. Joey
trapshooter Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 That's a great spec, congrats. Looks like a fun trip you guys had.
Cudz Posted March 6, 2009 Report Posted March 6, 2009 Be careful of your buddy's dog. 105 pounds and he looks powerful and in the last pic he is sporting a 'red-on' !!!! He might have his way with you. Good luck with that. PS Nice Speck!
