Well we were suppose to head up to the mile, but seeing how there is a lot of hot activity up there and I don't do well with respiratory issues, we headed up to Wyoming. What a beautiful lake and area, we started off by seeing a bald eagle perched up on a branch 20 ft off of the waters edge, my camera is not high speed, but you can see him in the pic.
On to the fish biz, we trolled the dam with the most reliable lures we always pack for trout, I am telling you, if you hunker down, you can't do anything wrong-trolled tazzies in rainbow pattern and Panther Martins, then when we reached the coves we placed the boat in 7fow and just fan casted, the cutthroat were stunning to say the least and the bows were wild. We hooked and landed fish after fish....we took 2 ea. home, did a fine fillet job, to that red meat for a fish fry.

Warning-the middle of this lake-the deepest of Wyoming lakes, reached 3ft white caps, stay in the coves until you can go in....a bit worst than the mile IMO, my boys and I had our vest on all the time minus the warm rested coves to fish!!!
If you want to escape any masses and catch fish all day, hit this lake, easy to get to laramie,WY-about 20 minutes out of town. We were the only boat on the water, and saw 2 trucks on the bank fishing-also catching fish every few minutes.
Tightlines....
