Christmas Tree ant-tastics
 
Last Week I talked to Chief, tied up some ants and went to Christmas Tree...

All were sight fished in the back coves, with a few trolled on the way back to the car. Not a bad morning.

The ants I originally tied were brown, and after talking to Chief I took the black sharpie to them and it seemed to do quite well.

Also ran into fellow AZFlyandTie member Rob Coombs, (AKA "mender") who can be seen below working a little ant magic himself.

Wow, those are some nice fish.

One of these days I'm gonna have to fish the tree, and intentionally bump into Chief.

I know all those fish, landed over 30+ today and Virgil did very good on the opposite side the cove he had over 20+, so the day was a easy 50+ fish day....Sorry couldn't catch up with Alex....next time, say hi to your Dad for me.....

"The Apache trout has the largest dorsal fin of all the trout types", those pictures show it.
