Well that was enjoyable.
Imagine having to bundle up to run 7 miles to fish for kokanee salmon in the high country desert in Wyoming.
Well that is what we did.
As daytime highs reached 110 degrees, we were dressed like it was in the fifties as the day started.
Oh, it was in the fifties. How refreshing, while I sit here in the Lowcountry and it is currently in the low eighties with matching humidity at 8:10 AM.
Larry put us on them as we limited out in three hours.
That is 3 salmon each.
He kept saying "I'm not happy Billy" as each hour ticked on and the pace of bite was too slow for him.
But, we were fine with the pace as we didn't want to get off the water too soon!
It was a trip of a lifetime! What beautiful fish!
