Quick Snowshoe

Jess and I took a quick snowshoe on a trail that followed the Yampa river. It was a great hike and I even got to fish a little.  We hiked over a mile before we hit public water.  I rigged up near a nice slow pool with a big ice ledge.  I pulled out a 14″ rainbow on a size 16 black soft hackle, which I purchased in Paris this past Thanksgiving.  After that hook up, I put the snowshoes back on and we continued to enjoy the rest of the hike.

Fish on!
Fish on!
