“While in the backcountry with my best friend and coworker Aiden Lofgren, we witnessed something truly special. We were fishing for Cutthroat Trout in a pool that looked very promising. The weird thing was, we weren’t getting any hits. After about 5 minutes, we knew something was up. Since the fish were being tricky, we decided to downsize our tippet and go smaller with our flies. The first cast after we switched, Aiden had hooked a nice fish. Within seconds, a massive 30”+ Bull Trout appeared out of nowhere to eat the Cutthroat he had hooked. This is what we witnessed… Jurassic Park.”
