fishing jong question, but how can you tell they’ve been caught prior? I’m assuming something obvious in the mouth / fish palate (or pallet if you are mtt [emoji23])Quote:

my brother found an old rod in a goodwill store -- $8
at that price, why not get it?
he gave it to me for my birthday as an [sarcastically] "improved" euro rod
16' fiberglass telescoping rod...lots of flex
i put an old broken 4/5/6 wt scientific anglers reel on it and took it to the river to try out

Yesterday was likely my last day of trout fishing for the season. The hike up to Diamond Lake is hours of bushwacking and climbing over deadfalls, but worth it. Great weather, a bald eagle, two groups of mountain goats and willing cutthroat made for a great day.
Attachment 387742Attachment 387743
Diamond is legit. Nice work.
Things around town are popping right now. Incredible weather all over SW Montana.

We could have used more hours of daylight and fewer deadfalls, but a really spectacular spot.Quote:

I miss Browns Park. A lot.
I brought Merlene out some bananas for her pet cottontail Friday, brought Mark a top shelf bottle of tequila. Met a couple other landowners this weekend as well, it’s an eclectic bunch out there.Quote:

This got me today, immediately put a smile on my face and it got a little dusty in my office. Brought back tons of memories of watching ESPN on Saturday AM instead of cartoons, and riding my bike to throw pumpkinseed powerworms texas rigged for largemouths in the town ponds. Not a huge mainstream country fan, but this was a great tribute.

Dammit. Now I'm gonna have to take my rod up to Steamboat with me this weekend. :D
Those pictures of Taylors taken from Steve Katen's old place up the hill with the red shed across the streets is my old place! had 5 lots there. If you hear of a single out there PM me. Steve
Where were your lots? If you're talking about the pic with my trailer in it the pic was taken up on the hill from Kyle Beckerman's lots. Were your lots where my trailer is? If so, did you sell them to some folks from Alaska? I own five lots where my trailer is at. I'm right across the street from those two tiny cabins owned by George and Jill Painter.
Attachment 391431
I had those two small evergreens (Pinon or Juniper?) in my lots.Steve Kanten own the top-o-the-hill many years ago next to the State land. II can' remember whoI sold the too.
The lot with the two junipers is owned by a realtor in Wilson now, I own the lot to the East of that one and four in a square to the North of it. Kyle Beckerman (of Real Salt Lake fame) owns the lots up on the hill and a number of them coming down the hill.Quote:

I had the lots east of those two evergreens Your Karma and Mojo is assured. Just for shits and giggles I looked at the Daggett MLS. One lot 5 k. I got my first one for 85 bucks:D
I was going to try to take this to PM, but pics aren’t sent.
These are my lots:
Attachment 391631
Did you own those or to the South up the hill? It’s a convoluted group of people that own land out there. I have enough to build on but I’d like to get more of them around me.
I’ve got kind of a schedule I’d like to keep, well, foundation and septic next summer. Construction commencing the following season.
Bob, can’t wait to check out your place. Congrats! It’s a cool spot in the world.
Picked up the new boat and got her out for the maiden voyage.
