What a Beauty This One Is

One of the Pyramid Lake Rangers gave Debbie a tip to go to Anderson Bay and Pyramid Lake two weeks ago. She told everyone she knows last week that she was going to catch the biggest fish at Anderson Bay.

So she and her dog set out to Anderson Bay on Sunday early morning at 5:00 am. Arriving there at 7:30 am and fishing until 12:55 when she told Dakota, "If we do not get a bite by 1:00, we are out of here."



She brought in her line with a trout spin lure and casted it out again. A large cutthroat trout followed her lure up to 12 feet into shore. She played with it a while and finally a tug. She pulled with all her might and she hooked it. The line began to go out and she did not have the strength to bring it in. Finally, she tightened her line and used her whole body to essentially drag the fish in. She was so excited she began to cry. Dakota her dog would not let anyone near his fish. He has been waiting a long time for this one.

Debbie Anderson fishes almost every weekend with her dog, Dakota and has not gotten a keeper fish for over a month now. As you can see from the photo she is very proud when she brought it home and a photo was taken.

--- Great Story and What a Great Fish!
