sunny and hot. and my 10th dino of the season finally. river has dropped probably 6 feet from runoff so the piranhas have finally moved out to faster water. still managed a couple frikkin mooneyes, on a 4/0 hook! also 3 walters a few suckers and a beautiful little 37 inch dino. Goint to try to post pics from Imagur for the first time.

no cattle in sight on the walk down, they waited and ambushed me on the way out. managed to sneak by the big herd bull again, they must be getting used to me no runners this time just watched as I walked by. Bull still scares the crap out of me though

Looks like a great day. I was north of Edmonton near the geographical centre of our province fly fishing the Morse River. Caught a couple of rainbows and one grayling. Lost a few too. Great day until the dark clouds and rain moved in.

Nice Report! Great variety of species. Yeah, cows freak me out too. Especially the herds that are not known :)
