Sam checked in with us from a recent trip to Pyramid Lake. Here is his report:

"Made my first boat trip to Pyramid on Monday, the 14th. What a blast. Put in water at around 745 and had my first fish just after 8, a beautiful 13.5 pound cutthroat. We stayed out until 11 and we wound up with 6 fish.The last fish was caught by my partner, a lofty 17 pound, 33 inch monster. Wow what a treat those two big fish were. All fish were released, and a fellow boater helped me save the 17 pounder. I learned a good lesson too. Best to have a descending device when you catch fish at depth. These fish were all caught in about 75 feet of water."

Thanks for sharing, Sam!
