It was a BIG ONE

Great pics Bobby. I still say "what a treat" it was. Thanks, again, Hump.

Great pics Bobby!! I think I was 100 pictures deep before I saw any mud though. My goodness it was dry!!

That place looks awesome. Great pictures

I had a great time riding with you guys. But, I gotta say that was the worst riding I've done there because of the weather. I have never seen that place that dry. If I were riding alone, I would have cut it short and went home. We had to avoid the trails that are fun to run fast on because of the dust. And, miss a couple of the harder ones because I knew they wouldn't be cleared out.

What kind of fish were in the picture? Has or Carp? This place is on the want to ride list for sure!

Trout

Were you able to fish there? Pay??

Yes you can and they also have a guide that that takes people out and teaches them to fly fish for a fee of course.You can also go outside the restaurant and pick a trout out of the water and they will fix it for you.

They have ponds that you can fish in for money. The catch and release with a fly rod is cheaper or you can keep the trout and pay by the pound. Also you can fish in the Elk River for free. The Elk is located right behind the restaurant. The Elk is catch and release at the resort and downstream for a couple of miles, however below that is miles of great trout fishing all year long. We saw about 15 trout in one spot below the catch and release section of the Elk. All of them were over 15 inches and some were over 20. I used to fly fish that area alot but I quit when my son got old enough to fish. Now he is getting old enough to learn to fly fish. Either way this trip made me wanna blow the dust off the old fly rod.

This first picture is in the pay ponds.





However this second picture is on the Elk River. Not gonna tell you where though.

thanks for sharing i want to go there so bad
