Tahoe Bow /non Yak

   Happy Holidays! Sorry for the non yak post, but I had to share this beautiful Rainbow  with you all. Took out my 13'8" aluminum yesterday morning and was toplining a 5" and a 8" AC skinny in Rainbow pattern. I had motor problems as soon as I let out my lines(6:30am 22 degrees) Finally got it to fire by asking nicely, PLEASE! A little after 7 the 8" gets hit on the outside. Netted this 22" 4pound 8oz Beauty! Decided to keep it for my Mom who is visiting.Take care and good luck, Eric

nice bow, thanks for the chilly report, cameron

Very nice specimen!

Beautiful fish Eric. WTG on the rainbow.

Holy cow look at that perfect tail! Nice fish, and on a lure, way to go.

Beautiful catch!  Thanks for the report and pictures Eric.

I just got the chills when I looked at the frost on the seat.....Nice ho bow!

Very nice... I have yet to catch something on my ac skinny. Man... maybe I'm not doing it right. Oh well... one of these days. Nice catch Eric

Thats a trout now! Nice. With that chilly water thats going to taste pretty good I'd bet. Congrats on the beautiful rainbow.

"thats going to taste good I'd bet" You are right on! Tahoe's trout are some of the tastiest trout anywhere! Cold, pure water with plenty of krill/crawdads make the meat a delicious pinkish/orange, almost like salmon. This fish had 7 smaller crawdads in it's belly, one of which was still alive when I gutted it! We ate it Thurs night and again yesterday, lot's of leftovers on a 4+ pounder. Thanks for all the replys and good luck, Eric

Beautiful fish!  Im looking forward to getting my kayak up there this year.  Brother in law lives in Meyers so I got no excuse!   Do you use the yak up there much in winter months?
