Long time-Return

My name is Brent Carver, fishing friend of Casey. I have made a few posts in the past. This is my third generation of lures I've made, and it works remarkably well. Its a shallow swimming crankbait without a lip. It go's from side to side like walking the dog without any extra rod movement needed.

Pretty neat.

Floating the Green River

Floated the Green in December with my father in law. Went with a guided fly fishing service. The browns were towards the end of their spawn which made for amazing fishing. We caught about 75 fish between the two of us in about 8 hours. Also saw a golden eagle and 2 bald eagles. Possibly one of the best fishing days of my life.

Lake Mead StRiPeR

Have had little or no success at Lake Mead for the past 2 months. Went out this morning and arrived at 7 am. After a 10 minute hike, I finally arrived at nice little cove. A few minutes later I hooked up with this 19" Striper. This is the first good sized striper I have caught. I was using a big White bucktail jig, 1/2 oz.

Lake Mead Fishing

Finally purchased a Nevada fishing license. While there are few fishable waters here in Nevada, there are plenty of fish at Lake Mead. Lake Mead is known for its stripers (type of bass), large mouth, small mouth, and cats.

Kyle and myself headed up to the lake at 5am. As the sun rose up over the Arizona mountains, the bass and stripers started to rise.

After a few hours of fishing, we caught about 20 fish. 18 Stripers, 1 large mouth, and 1 small mouth. Nothing big, 12" max. They were hitting a chrome Krocodile 1/4oz like you wouldn't believe. Here's a few pictures from the trip.

Eastern Idaho fishing, Land-locked Salmon and big Brown

Teton National Park and St. Anthony

Fished Jackson lake in Teton National Forest. Went with Rachels family and her uncle on a small boat around the lake. Fishing was really slow for such a huge lake!

Poles out but nothing going on

Nice looking Brook Trout that I caught illegally. I guess those signs around the river actually mean something.....

Went to St. Anthony with my bro-in-law Paul. He just got back from his mission and caught the first fish today. Here is a nice brown I pulled out of the river.
