Idaho fish

So we are working in the yard today and a friend drops by to show us the fish he caught. Brad is a friend of ours who likes to fish and catches some nice ones in the Snake River. He came by to try and get my goat today and show me this nice brown trout he caught this morning. This thing weighed around 5 lbs and he had another around 2 that he brought home to eat.

Brad told me he caught 9 or so fish in about an hour and this one was the biggest. He uses rapala's that he has modified and I am thinking that the jig and bobber combo I used to use in Eagle Lake might work well here. You know, sooner or later I'm going to have to get a fishing license and go fishing since the Snake River runs right through town. So I guess you could say that good old Brad was successful in getting my goat and seeing a nice fish like that makes me want to quit procrastinating and get out and catch a few. I have been here long enough now that I can legally buy a resident license and they aren't very expensive so I've got to put some thought into that even though the end of the year is coming up. Thanks Brad!
