Fishing Rattlesnake

Isn't he cute? I pulled this crazy carp-like creature out of Rattlesnake Lake. Honestly, he had the face that only a Mother could love, but at the same time...he was so ugly, he was cute. I posted in a fly-fishing forum to figure out what the heck I had caught. I thought that lake only had Rainbow Trout! I'll keep you posted, but so far I'm mostly getting replies that say "LOL". Look at that long nose! Good grief...only I would catch something so ugly!

The feathered ones were also out fishing. The fishing was slow for them too.
