We were in the backcountry for five nights and didn’t see another human soul for days!!
That‘s so awesome @Mizmazzle Did you have to take precautions against bears? Did you eat the trouts?

@Mizmazzle that looks stunning! Also good to be reminded of the proper name for the golden trout. Somehow your quest for this fish came up in conversation a while back and the best I could do was fish that live at the top of mountains / sky trout

@Mizmazzle Amazing scenery and beautiful trouts!
I was fishing perch and northern pike earlier this week. Good times. Maybe trying grayling tomorrow.

@Mizmazzle beautiful!

@endo Yes the Wind River Mountain Range is both Grizzly and black bear habitat. We carried both bear spray and a pistol as a precaution. We are meticulous with keeping a clean camp and hanging our food bag far from where our tents are placed.
Primarily we are catch and release fisherman. Every now and then we like to take a non-trophy fish to eat if there is a large population in a body of water.
Neither of us had ever eaten a Golden Trout before so this time we did eat one. It was fantastic!

@Mizmazzle northern Finland. Above arctic circle. Relatively flat lands. Plenty of forests and swamps and lakes

Pretty much have just been a lurker on the forums since I joined, but this convo is speaking my language. I'm up in Montana, here are a few pics from fishing around here this summer plus a bonus Tarpon pic from the Keys in May.
