When I got that e-mail from a one of my new and well respected friends yesterday, I quickly came to the realization that I was losing focus. I was feeling a bit sorry for myself for a few reasons, but I've spent a wonderful summer in Idaho, I'm getting ready to go fish in paradise for 8 months and actually get paid....it was the kick in the butt in needed to help me refocus.
Heck, everyone for three counties is Elk hunting right now, which means I've got hundreds of miles of streams all to myself.
Crisp fall mornings lead to beautiful clear skies and 73 degree sunny afternoons. How can I waste this wonderful opportunity? Shame on me.
Fortunately, as soon as my waders broke the surface of the crystal clear river water, I quickly remembered why I'm so lucky to be here. Sure, the fishing started slow, and I felt a bit rusty and complacent as I started making my way upstream, but I soon found a groove.
Caught a few beautiful Cutthroat trout, including this beauty from Kirby Korner....
...and his big brother just up in the next bend.
Rumors of another Elk down. Hopefully stay tuned for good news.
