Catch Anything on Your Last Elk Hunt?

[Gerald Martin]

Anyone ever been asked the question, " Catch anything?" after your return from a hunting trip?

It looks as if this guy can say "Yep."

It's just so hard to find the right tippet when combo fly fishing for trout and elk at the same time. Cool photo though.

I've heard of anglers getting "spooled" by passing Winnebagos in Yellowstone. That big bruiser would put a bend in your 5 weight

Hear it quite often. I just tell them that the quarry runs too fast for an old fart like me. Wonder if he was using a grey hackle with peacock or maybe a muddler minnow?

Moose in Wyo like Wooley Buggers in purple w/black flash. I'm still cleaning my waders out.

I was fishing behind the Visitor Center in Estes Park early one morning and a bull moved his harem from the golf course across the river 20 yards downstream of me. I didn't notice until some of the cows were running up the bank on the other side of the river. Turned around and realized I must have come very close to hitting them with my back cast.

Thanks for sharing!


BTW - I always have people ask me if I caught anything while hunting. I tell them that I don't really catch them, I shoot them and then I don't have to catch them, which sounds hard.
