This was from last week. Caught a couple small halibut and a couple rock fish. No pic of them they were small.

Just a few shots of some local reservoirs near me.

Lost Creek

Mantua

It's remarkable to me that those eggs can incubate on a floating nest like that.

We've been back from our three week road trip of camping and paddling for about a week... we went high into Montana, preferring county roads to highways and looking for lakes thirty miles off of the paved roads... We found some beauties... We paddled pretty much everyday for a couple hours, one day hitting three lakes in a day... The conditions were spectacular... High mountains, warm dry winds and surprisingly warm water... One day we were out about four miles from camp when the weather went from sublimely serene to impending mayhem in about ten minutes time... It got ugly fast... White capping with rain, lightning and thunder... We ended up sitting on rocks and logs in the water ( the shoreline was basically mountains dropping into the lake) for about a half hour until we could make at least some progress on our knees... It rivaled the time Pam and I had Tim's Zodiac in a fjord with hard beat-down seas... After Montana we dropped into Idaho for about a week again staying away from the more traveled path...Overall we had a blast... No itinerary other than asking the locals about their favorite lakes... We were never disappointed...
