Holter Lake Fishing

Holter Lake Fishing

While on Vacation in Montana this spring, I was lucky enough to head out to Holter Lake and go Trout fishing. We had beautiful weather, despite the somewhat slow fishing. Here are some pictures from the trip. I always have a camera or two in my hand trying to capture everything around me.

Photography is no longer a profession, its more like an obsession!

Photographs taken: Nikon D800, Nikon D600, 300mm 2.8, 24-70 2.8, Sigma 35mm 1.4

Largest Trout I have ever Caught. Released this nice guy as well, soon after!

Truly is BIG SKY COUNTRY!

Big Sky Fall

Big Sky Fall Fall is one of the best times to be in Montana. The trees are slowly turning, the weather is generally favorable and the day-by-day lighting is a photographers dream. I started my trip off with a little trout fishing in Holter Lake. The lake is a incredible intricate lake; one that Lewis and Clark navigated on their way through the State. I was fortunate enough to see some beautiful Big Horn Sheep, Antelope and lots of deer like usual.  Most of the shots are taken with a Nikon D800 or a Nikon D600. The animal shots are with a 300mm 2.8 1.7x Tele convertor.

The largest Trout I have ever caught! Beautiful Rainbow Trout!

Holter Lake. The mountain ranges surrounding the lake are incredible.

I was trying to be sneaky and get a photograph of some White Tail's feeding on some apples. I got caught and they took off running.
