Geoff Fitzgerald fished the Big Hole in mid-August for a few days. He had a great trip and one reason was this year there was a lot of water. He ended up fishing mainly in the faster water. Geoff takes lots of pictures when out fishing. He photos are of anything unusual and occasionally of trout. He shared two photos from his August Big Hole River trip that illustrate both the unusual and trout.
Here are his descriptions of the photos:
"The brown in the pic was right below Jerry Creek Bridge and it was hookedon the first cast using a yellow marabou muddler.
The speckled egg on the algae mat was incredible, yet a little tragic; absolutely untouched and unbroken - must've rolled out of a nest near the bank (meadowlark nest perhaps) or on gravel bar (in that case possibly spotted sandpiper or killdeer)."
Anyone have any firm ideas of the species of bird egg?
Geoff, thanks for sharing. We love getting other "points of view."
Thank you!! So nice to hear from you and I love your photos so much. I will be visiting your post often...
ReplyDeleteI can see how you love fishing. Good thing you have grabbed your camera, took a shot and shared some of your photos with us. And wow! You even spotted an egg in there. I didn't noticed that in the first place. I thought it was a leaf. I'm so jealous, I want to go back in my younger years while there are still fishes in the river.
