BilletHead Posted July 1, 2018 Posted July 1, 2018 Got my online edition to Southern trout magazine by e-mail. Went to flipping through the pages and to my chagrin when I got to pages 36/37 I recognized the fish! This story goes back to last Fall when gathering at Bennett springs where like minded flyfishermen , reps with their goods showed up and we got to view the flyfishing film tour. There were fly tiers and a painter with her watercolors. Pat and I had a good visit with her and talked fish. Pat told her about our trip just a month or two before and about the fish we caught and asked if she had ever seen a tiger trout. I showed her the picture on my phone. She asked if she could paint it, Well sure if you would like and when getting home after that weekend I sent the picture via e-mail. Best thing about this is I now have that watercolor in my possession , http://www.southerntrout.com/ozark-edition Read the edition and view the picture if you would like.

Yes I actually agree , They were a fun sidetrack from ALL of the NATIVES we caught in their NATIVE ranges!

Get it landed and on the list ! Well I will even stoop to catch anything if the target species is not available. That would even include a nasty carp 🤢, BilletHead JestersHK 1 "We have met the enemy and it is us", Pogo If you compete with your fellow anglers, you become their competitor, If you help them you become their friend" Lefty Kreh " Never display your knowledge, you only share it" Lefty Kreh "Eat more bass and there will be more room for walleye to grow!"
