The finale for Group Three was a marvelous one with not only the celebration of our nation's birthday (amidst an evening of continual, unrelenting rain, I might add!) but also for the filling out of E-10's Twenty Inch Board. Shown above (in reverse order) are (i) "Seattle John" Mowat for his 20" bounty; (ii) "Fire Pit Matt" Colesworthy for his "20.375" inch brown and (iii) "The King of Group Three", Bruce "The Rookie" Mowat for his 22 1/2" brown that was not only the Yellow Hat winner for the day but also the Yellow Shirt winner for the largest Group Three trout caught. Yellow abounded to all three, in fact: to "Seattle John" for his grand slam of five species of trout, to "Fire Pit Matt" for his wonderful gregariousness and, of course, a hat and shirt fit for a king to The Rookie.
Lighting up the scoreboard on Day Three for Them Threes was the SS Grassi that landed 60+ Bitterroot fish, the SS Bedford that had a 35+ fish day on the much less soggy Blackfoot ("A River Runs Through It") River, and a(nother) outstanding performance by the Stealth Boat of David "Dry Fly" Hatch and "Eric The Dred" Read, with overall fishing day's boat reports being one of smiles, large fish and satedness as the the extravagance of it all.
Aaah, the wonderful extravagance of it all, indeed!
