[QUOTE="Big Sky, post: 1120118, member: 458"] I haven't been around much lately. Too busy with work, life, and sneaking in a fishing trip here and there. While I have been out calling a time or two, I'm having a streak of bad luck. I'm seeing coyotes, I just haven't been able to get a bullet into any of them for various reasons. Sooner or later though, their luck will run out and mine will improve. In the mean time the Fishing God's have been pretty decent to me. So without further delay, here's some fall colors for you boys. Fishing-wise if there is anything more fun than fishing a high mountain creek for native West Slope Cutthroat I don't know what it is. Their spawning colors are absolutely beautiful!
