Went and fished the Blackfoot this afternoon for a few hours with Riley. Yesterday, he spotted a very large Bull Trout. Sure enough, the fish was in the exact same spot, resting in the current just behind a boulder. It was cool to watch the fish in its element. Riley lost one Bully right off the bat and a few minutes later, I hooked into a decent fish.
After fishing the long run, we headed upstream in search of better holding water. We found a nice looking run and on the first cast, Riley hooked up with a nice cuttbow. The fish really fought hard but Riley played it well and was able to land the fish.
The Blackfoot is fishing well so we'll probably be fishing it more frequently as it gets colder. It was a good few hours on the water.
