Great pics, that area is awesome. Dude looks like he's trying to squeeze the fish to death in the last picture. Either that or he's grossed out and trying not to puke.
Cool pics, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for posting Vini...was pretty cold that day.
I landed about 14 total. Largest was about 21". I do have a goofy looking grin. I had a couple pounds of flower seeds in my mouth.

LAST EDITED ON Apr-07-05 AT 01:49PM (MST)[p]How did he like Chris the guide, is it Fishheads? That was who I went with last fall, he was pretty cool and made an enjoyable trip!!!
BTW, is that a state hat he's wearing???!!!
Come on, Lobos all the way man!!!

Yeah, a buddy and went on a half day float trip with Chris Taylor of Fishheads. He's pretty good...one of the best on the river. Go Aggies man!

Well they had a rough year this year but things are looking up for them with the new coach. I guess they are also moving into the WAC so that is an improvement as well.
BTW,
How many did you catch in a half day? We went on a full day and probably hauled in at least 20-30 trout each, big ones as well. San juan kicks ass and I can not wait to go back.

If they are moving into the WAC you mignt as well kiss the next several seasons goodbye. No one stands a chance against our Boise State! Hopefully they'll at least be a team that can somewhat challenge. That is what the WAC really needs.

I landed about 14 on the half day trip. My buddy landed around 11 or 12. All fish were from 16" to 21". Wading was tougher. Weather kicked in and it was cold as hell...started snowing. I landed only one...it was the biggest of the day though. Things should look better for the Aggies. I think BB will benefit most with Reggie Theus at the helm. I don't know much about the new football coach.

Yeah, it looks cold!! brrrr. You die hard you! hehe.
I guess old Reggie is a heck of a coach, sounds like he's been around the block a few times.

Fowl Addict: BOISE STATE! HAHAHAHAAA LMAO!!! Do they have a mascot? Just kidding bud, they beat Nevada this year didn't they in the conf tourney? Sounds like they were pretty tough this year.
I watched Nick Fazekas (plays for Nevada) the last 2 years he was in high school up at the state tournament. Sounds like he kicked some ass this last year in BB.
Don't count the Aggies out, if they get the program back like they used to have, all the other WAC teams can kiss their season good-by. NM State has made the big dance more than once along with some sweet 16 showings. You guys better hope Coach Theus don't get them back to that again!!!!
