Black Canyon of the Gunnison (cont.)


My first morning on the Gunnison just as the Salmonfly hatch was starting to show its face. I had no idea about the great fish we were about to hook up with in the next few days. It was awesome!

This male brown wasn't the biggest fish in the hole, but I wouldn't tell him that. He put up quite a quarrel.

This is an 18 inch brown that played dead....only for a moment because once he saw the man with the net he bolted. I was so excited to land this guy.

Here I am with the 21 inch bow that took all I had to hold him in two hands. It was a moment I'll never forget. Thanks Dave
