It's already past my bedtime, so I'll make this quick.
I thought I'd post up some images from the last few weeks.
There are shots from a couple trips to the Oldman/Livingstone for cutties/rainbows/cuttbows. Last part will be pics from last Saturday at Crawling Valley Reservoir, where my bro & I had a crazy good day jigging minnows from our pontoon boats.
Here goes...

I landed the first fish shortly after we got on the water around 8am; it was non-stop action after that!

My bro's first of the day...

I used the same jig head all day; add a minnow & drop near bottom. Sometimes it didn't even get to the bottom before another one hit!

Another for my brother...

My bro got bit off by a pike. I got lucky & landed both pike that I hooked; each had the jig just in the lip, so they couldn't bite through my fluoro leader...

It was a beautiful morning on the water, with a little breeze & some cloud cover.
The fishing was phenomenal!

I caught at least one 'eye twice. This guy with a very distinctive dorsal fin came to hand a second time in a couple hours...

The clouds cleared & the wind died around noon. By 1pm we were off the water to avoid the 25 degree heat. My bro had a catnap while he waited for me to row in to shore...

We relaxed & visited at the campground until 6:30, then headed back out for an evening session. The clouds had come back & it was just as good as the morning...

We finished the day with one last double-header. I don't usually count fish, but we had been having a little competition. I built up a pretty big lead in the morning, but my bro came back & made it real close by the time the day was done. These two fish were numbers 99 & 100 on the day; 2 pike & 98 walleye- by far the most productive day I've had at CV!

It was a blast; may have to do it again soon...
Later, y'all!

The walleye you caught twice looks like he's taking a chomp out of your brother's face. Ouch lol. Wicked pics man!!

As always, you post some great pics. Man those cutties in that river are pretty. It looks like some have rainbows polluting their gene pool.
