I live in NY and have fished the ADK's for trout often, stream or pond?

 

[hecktor15]

It was a pond using wobblers. Caught them in about 90 min. Never caught that size so fast before but I'm not complaining!

 

[troutfisher13111]

I wouldn't complain either, those are some nice fish and fine eats!

Bushfinger

Why does it look like the same length as the Bushboot then?

Great to see that gorgeous Ladyfinger getting used. Not the first time she gets used on trout either.

She has a thirst for trout blood

Is that an Arête in OD can on top Thurin? ^^^

 

[HWF]

Looking good.

Love how that OD is aging.

You are correct, top is an Arete, OD over Natural Canvas with a White Pinstripe.

Bottom is a Kephart.

Thanks. I REALLY need to save up for a scandi fiddleback. I just can't make up my mind. Do I go Terrasuar or Arête??

 

[thurin]

Working on a spoontula out of Aspen from the backyard. Same Arete as before, just sucky lighting in this pic.

My collection of maroon linen Fiddlebacks I have acquired over the last few months. Thought I would post a picture of them all up together before they get used. Thanks to all who I contacted & decided to part with their beauties. Much appreciated...
Sorry for the indoor iPhone pics folks.
Pictured in the 1st picture from top to bottom are as follows: KE Bushie, Arete, Recluse, Kephart, Bushfinger, Carver, ED Karda, Bushboot & Hiking Buddy.
Andy you make wonderful knives & I can't wait until these develop a nice patina with use.

I am curious if anyone else out there has a group of matching Fiddlebacks. Please post some pics if you do.
And if anyone so happens to decide to part with any maroon linen models not pictured I would be interested.
