The ice is gone and the rainbows have gone into their false spawn mode. Love this time of year. Glow bugs and plastic beads are the temptation of choice for them. Here are a few I was lucky enough to catch after work yesterday evening.

Hefty bugger.


Kind'a long and a little on the skinny side, but put up a good fight.


Defiant all the way around.


Another feisty one!

NICE! Should be about time up here on Canyon Ferry for the same.

I hear Canyon Ferry still had too much ice, but that can change over night. I also really enjoy ice on both upper and lower Holter Lake.

You're not back home now are you? You still in Utah?

Some great looking fish,and some great pics as well

Ingwe, I live in Utah these days. I don't know when I'll ever make it back up to Montana, but hopefully I can sneak in at least one trip this summer.

Nice fish ans one would expect, GREAT pictures of the fish!

Very nice fish.

Gorgeous fish.

Nice..



Good job. I have great success with a crystal meth egg pattern when the beads stop producing.
