Jud,

Yes they fly fish from ladders in the middle of the winter, pretty hard core. The Lahontan cutthroats are the largest cutt's in the world. My largest is 11lb 6oz.
Interestingly they cross bred the original strain with rainbows and diluted the strain also they diverted the Truckee river to irrigate Fallon, Nv. and the original cutt's suffered greatly.
Not long ago they found an original strain of Lahotan's on Pilot peak Nv. in a small stream in the far Nortweast corner of the state, they transplanted them and they seem to be doing better and the size is increasing. I hear 20+ lbr's being caught these days.
