Are you fishing on the main Salmon or are you going further north to the Clearwater? At any rate, it looks like fun. I hope to get out this spring to fish for steelies. They sure are fun to catch. Nice job and great pics.

I got 2 does yesterday, both are good size. What do u guys think?

http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee20 ... teelie.jpg
This ones around 17/18lbs, wild doe, i released her

http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee20 ... 45lbs2.jpg
This fish is 14.5lb doe, she was a hatchery so i kept her for dinner

http://i234.photobucket.com/albums/ee20 ... 145lbs.jpg
Here's the smaller fish sitting next to my rod, she was 34.5 inches long.

Sorry about the quality in the first photo, it was taken with a camera phone, the second was with a normal digital.
I've climbed 2 mountains. Found this guy, camped out on top of the world. I'm goin to get that ram. Thoughts of a commited sheep hunter. Work the next day, who cares, wife or girlfriend, THANK GOD! i'm hunting sheep and not at home.
