Is the blur job an attempt to hide the location?

I think it's just the setting on the phones camera. If I shoot in 'portrait mode' with my phone a similar effect happens.

@Roper about to become the PNW forum pike guru if his move happens.

I have a good friend I use to work with that lives in Hayden. Maybe it’s time for a visit.

So cool.
And my lakes still have ice on them.

When is ice off normally in your neck of the woods?

I was fishing last year at this time.
You never know.

Like @Hem said, "you never know".
This was outside of Anaconda at 6 a.m. last Wednesday.

Yes, that's -10 degrees.

This was as I was passing thru Bozeman at 10 a.m. last Saturday.

Not sure my 10 wt would handle that big puppy. Awesome fish.

I’ve measured 5 over 45” in my life. None that I can remember were that freaking thick!
