I remember this video from years ago and could never find it again. Suddenly it popped up on my feed:

It's a late-stage body of water that has grown over with weeds and moss until there's a thick layer of vegetation floating on the surface that you can walk on, mostly. Trout hang around the small openings, but are real sensitive to the vibrations of walking, so you need to be a good caster to land it from a distance. At some point, it'll eventually grow over into a peat bog.

Just a really cool environment and a great catch on that guy's part.

Big day in Waterton Canyon. Pulled 7 out of there today. 3 rainbows, which were all fighters, and 4 brownies.
Here are the ones worth posting.

Must’ve been the lighting or the camera settings maybe, but the rainbows’ stripes were a lot brighter pink in person.
The red spots on the brownies came out super red tho.
The only trout I ever catch are usually stocked ones that are half dead by the time you catch them so they don't have much color at all. IMG_20240904_191136501_HDR.jpg
I did manage to luck into being able to spend this evening and tonight on the Allegheny though.

Fishing trip to Vallecito Lake NE of Durango today.
Caught all kinds of stuff.
These were the best. Mrs Thunderlips snagged this pike, which is apparently a very small pike for the area, but we’ll take it.

Anyone else remember when there was almost a legit fight over someone making fun of someone else's homemade lures?

Meateater did a podcast on that event. I think with the guys who busted them.
They were pretty dirty and they dug into the dirt.

I enjoyed it.
I'll have to check it out. As serious as some tournament fishermen are it's a wonder those guys aren't at the bottom of the lake somewhere lol.
