Good Ol' Boys 2009

[baybassboy]

Just realized i didn't post up my annual GOB report... here it is, a couple weeks late



Every October, I get the chance to take a trip to Mammoth to take part in the Good Ol' Boys trout tournament. My brother and I are the yougest in the bunch by many years, but it is pretty cool thing to take part in.

My dad, brother and I release all of our fish, so we willnever place in the tournament, but it is the one trip i look forward to every year. Since i only got a chance to do 2 sierra trips this season, this week was especially fun.

I'll keep it brief and load the thread up with pictures.

Fished Crowley, Mary, Upper Twin, Grant, Little Virginia, and Big Virginia. While then numbers weren't there like years past, the quality of the fish was pretty good. We also cut, split, and stacked 2 1/2 cords of firewood. Enough to heat the cabin for many trips to come. I'll be happy to put up more details per request. Enjoy.

Awesome report and pics! Thanks for sharing.:Thumbs Up::Thumbs Up:
I've got to know more about the truck tent in the pictures. I'd like to get something like that for my truck. I couldn't quite make out the name so if you could give me a little more information about it I'd be very appreciative.

Its made by US Truck Tent (www.ustrucktent.com). At one point we had 5 tubes in there blasting down the highway.... a pretty cool little tent, but definitely a beast
