Fishing "The Root"

Extravagant Ones:
 
As promised, attached are still photos of our jaunt onto the Bitterroot River this past March Sunday--a real bonus in the Western Montana fishing world, where the winter weather and waters have turned abnormally early spring-like. 
 
The first of these is with our Double Up Outfitter, "John The Great But Propaneless" Gould (so named as a result of his E-09's two-days-in-a-row ["double up"?!?]  forgetting to bring along propane for our traditionally otherwise hot streamside Extravaganza lunches) holding up a true double--a nice Group Oner Ben Lamb-landed brown in his left hand and a RCR rainbow in his right--each in the mid-teens in length; followed by (i) a nice early morning RCR-caught rainbow; (ii) official Extravaganza mascot "Buddy" performing his favorite potato chip trick; (iii) Propaneless showing off his fishing report head cam (you can still see Sunday's headcam video of us on his www.doubleupoutfitters.com website, btw); and (iv) a nice 15" cuttbow (a cross between a cutthroat and a rainbow--note the "cutthroat"  markings under the chin and the rainbowesque lateral stripe).
 
What a way to spend a March Sunday (or any day, for that matter)!
 
Enjoy!!
