Pictures of Fish, Page 3
Believe it or not, sometimes I submit to the weather's mandate that I fish for lesser species than the noble salmonids. The temperatures soar in August and the trout take refuge in hidden spring seeps and the unfortunate hours preceding dawn. I yield to nature's demands, attaching beastly things to my tippet and lobbing them at the likes of muskellunge and smallmouth bass. Oh, life is hard!
This is my first musky on the fly, a 25 incher.
A small round whitefish.

One of several nice smallmouths my dad and I caught on a mid-August float trip.

I was looking for king salmon, but this fallfish was the biggest fish I found. Maybe if I had photoshopped it enough I'd have something to brag about...

One of my first two keeper halibut... incredibly tasty fish!

I was disappointed at first to find that all the risers one evening were fallfish, but I had fun once I adapted my expectations and started catching fallfish over 15 inches like this one.

There are few sights more promising than a large pool on the Beaverkill full of steady rises to a parade of fallen flying ants. It was a bit of a let-down, however, to learn that most of the rises were from fallfish like this one, and there didn't seem to be a trout in sight.
