WEEK 9


Snake River Cutthroat

I wish I could say that I spent the last month floating the Snake from Jackson Lake to Palisades Reservoir and that I caught a boatload of these beautiful trout, but I can’t. It has been way too many years since I landed a Cutthroat of any subspecies, much less this one. Living in the southeast kinda limits my access to western waters...but hopefully someday I can make it back.

I’m pretty pleased with the way this image turned out. Yes, I will color it at some point down the road – but I’ll do it under protest! Some images just look better in black and white.
