Hit a nice caddis hatch on the Upper Rio Santa Barbara in the Pecos Wilderness. The rare and elusive Rio Grande cutthroat:

There were browns too, but the camera batteries gave out.

Cool!

This thread has been delivering as it always does! Good work from lots of folks! One of these days I'm gonna take a pic.

Rarely post on TGR, but this site constantly provides the stoke. Time to start giving a little back.

What's that, like a minute per inch?

Nice leader straightener. What model is it?

Brought my 6wt on trip to visit wife's family in Indiana just in case. Spied some rock piles on the White River by the inlaws from Google earth. Caught a bunch of smallies.

Got this 15 incher on a brown bugger.

And the highlight. 19 incher busted a frog colored popper right at sunset. Viscous take. My knees were knocking for ten minutes after he was in the net.

I take back all the shit I said about Indiana.

I'm always jealous when I see these floating trip TRs: boats, dogs, and nice fish pics, places I may never get to visit, fish bigger than my hand...:rolleyes2

but let me get this straight:
When you fish, you also have an all-female video/photography team documenting your every move?

you sir, are living the life!:yourock:

sorry bout attempts 1 and 2
3rd times a piercing charm remover:tongue:

You guys are killing me! One more week of travel and I am headed to the river. Dfinn, the boat looks awesome!

Awesome might be a stretch but it floats and catches fish! I'm psyched.

Grats on the boat man!

thanks bud! I'll definitely be dragging it up your way this fall.

That is pretty much what every drift boat does, regardless of price. We need to get that thing out.

hooked into one of these for the first time last week.

Took the squirt boat out on the Watauga river on Monday. Daughter, her BF, and friend Collin. Collin finally managed to catch his first brownie. Good day on the river.

Believe it's a Dr. Slicks. But any old bike tube on some leather works really well.
