I know that spot and fly well!  I'm back in the game next September! It pretty much killed me not being able to get up there this September.

Looks like stuff that dreams are made of, living the life of such. I agree, you have a sweet little girl, and I thought my boy was the only one that could catch something out of the porcelin lake!
Thanks for the great shots and taking the time to share with us.

Man you sure know how to burn-up a month the right way !! Cherry-picking thru your trip pics this one just jumps out......  Your not a small guy & knowing that, this fish is just a HUGE steelie.... It looks like a steelhead/king salmon hybrid, did you get a girth measurement on it? Great post..... c/22

They just don't grow them that big down here, except up on the Smith River. Thanks for a great post Bob!

Geez Bob. The bar for legendary posts is a bit higher now. Inspiring to say the least. Great to know that there are still places on this globe where fish of that quality are still found in decent numbers. Well done sir.
