Default Bobby B(AO) Virgin Lake Whitefish

Wow what a day!!!!

Bobby B came out from Edmonton to fish Talbot

Last night we could find them in the weeds but not outside so we headed in and got a early start today

First one was fun too watch Bobby's face as the runs were Epic

Then had one get way after a few C&R

they have the habit of diving right into the mud sometimes got some good picture's of Bobby pulling it out

What a fight sometimes only to lose it as a couple more got away

This is so much fun he said as he pulled in his 6 one ..all I could do is smile as I have been enjoying Lake Whites on a Fly Rod too

Great Day Fun times Beautiful weather

Fishing is so much fun

Enjoy

David

Hey David,

In all honesty, I can't thank you enough for all that you did for me. You were kind enough to offer a complete stranger the opportunity to fish with you on Talbot Lake knowing I was a TOTAL GREENHORN. Yes, the fishing for, and the catching of, the whitefish was great, as was the hot, sunny weather. But, your expertise in guiding me to hook some of those fiesty whitefish was even better. Then, sharing the fun together was really what counted the most. Thanks, again. I'm still smiling!!!

Damn, I wish I was back on the lake with you again tomorrow morning spotting and hunting those whitefish and hooking more of them. I hope you enjoyed yourself at least 1/2 as much as I did. There's nothing quite like watching those big fish jump, or tail walk, or dive into the mud, or simply run, all in that crystal clear water.

That was a COOL experience.

PS. Those runty bears wouldn't stand a chance. LOL

Bobby B.

Bear fights look photoshopped. If you look close the shadow is in the wrong place. I call bull. Nice fish and good on you for taking me out next.....errr.. I mean taking Bobby out!!!!

That bear seemed a lot friendlier in the winter, must have been the heat!

I have trouble in the evening but we did get them to take the indicator under just missed the set.. it gets windy in afternoon there sometimes but if you can find them and stay on them its doable
