AT OLW Ongoing Travel Log [Pic Heavy]

[Roverchef]

That was an awsome read…thanks for all the pics since most of my stories/books require crayons.

 

[at_olw]

Thanks for taking the time to read!

 

[Aussie Iron]

Great report and I really like the photos that you posted.

Dan.

Thank you for the kind words Dan!

Fantastic photo essay! It made me actually miss living in Utah

 

[at_olw]

What a complement! Thank you.

Here are some pictures from a trip that I just got back from, today. Taken from a place I hold near and dear - the eastern sierras. I spent more time catching fish than taking photos, so this will be brief. Forgive me for not naming the fishing spots (and please don't name if you do know the locations)

Lets call this – “Stream #1.”

We fish for native trout - most of the fish are around this size in the streams +/- a couple inches.

Showing how it's done.

What a beautiful canyon.

We do tube the lakes too, realistically catching mostly stocked fish. But who cares if they're non-natives, when this is the view?

Of all the lakes I have fished, this one remains my favorite.

Let's call this “Stream #2.”

An offshoot with the perfect lunch view.

This spot used to be a honey hole. Not so much in recent years.

The rest of the stream remained productive.

Loops.

I've rarely seen another person, let alone another fisherman at my favorite stream, so I'm not going to post those photos. Here's another of the canyon at Stream #1, from the second time we fished it, to make up for that

To finish this off, here are some shots from a hike. All very fishable, but we didn't bring rods, this time

Until next time.

Awesome shots, man, and amazing scenery! Sounds like you had a great time.

 

[at_olw]

Thanks for the kind words my friend! It was a good trip. Well minus the mishap you know about. But my new sage rod will be here tomorrow :wings:

 

[92shawman]

Awesome! How about the new radio?

 

[at_olw]

I miss having a proper dual band radio, but I like the new one a lot, and am looking forward to experimenting with mobile HF. 95% done with the install - just need need to fab a bracket for the head unit to permanently mount (everything is connected and up and running). Kind of lame that the separation kit doesn't include one! Oh well.

Have you gotten a chance to install the kenwood??
