9 of us altogether; 6 floated the green Friday and Saturday, and 3 of us just made a Saturday day trip out of it.
On the way up, we caught the wind farm just east of Evanston right at sunrise.
Here's the video. Click the "link" to get the higher quality version to see those fishies better.

Wow, looks like a helluva trip!
Do you float the Green every year? I've noticed past trip reports of yours, floating the Green.
I've never been and, by your pics, I can tell why they named it the Green.
Glad you got out fishing. :2thumbs: |

Actually, it was very crowded. We just split ourselves up very well. |

| I should have went to the Geen this weekend instead of Daniels in Idaho. I only caught one 19" rainbow. The Green river is full of healthy rainbows and browns. Nice pics and Video. |

Good question. :haha: I don't know, man. But I know I've been backing out of even more things this year too.
Yeah, the scenery made up for my poor fishing skills. Let's face it, I'm in it for the footage. :cool2: |

I was going to go down to Weber this weekend, but maybe i will make the longer drive. That looks too damn beautiful this time of the year!
PS: Justin, I am holding a grudge for not inviting the only water junky buddy you have :bootyshake: |

Sorry man, it was just family. :ne_nau:
I was thinking though how cool it would be to fish from your canoe. You could do all the rowing, and I could be fishing. :haha: |
