Water levels are coming down across the Bighorn Mountains, and
the fish are biting. According to Luke Todd of the Sports Lure, now is
a great time to throw attractor flies and spinner lures.
Also, it might be a good time for a fish fry. Todd says the brook
trout are out, overstocked and ready to bite.
The waters are clearing up, and if you can find spots that arent
running so fast, things are doing well in the streams, Todd said.
You want eddies and pools look for placid water and have at it.
Still too cold for the really high passes, but for the most part, the
mountain is open and ready for business, Todd said.
With alpine areas clearing of snow quickly up to around 10,500
feet places such as Lake Angeline might be a good way to get in
some primo early-season fishing.
Right now, the fish are real opportunistic, Todd said.
Now is the time to be in a catch-and-eat state of mind for brook-
ies, the fresher the better.
Trout dont freeze well, Todd said.

The pitch that got (Larkins) out of the game was a full count.

Coy pitching us out. He was a strike away to finishing us off.
Sunday was the final day of the tournament, and the Bulls faced
Newcastle again.
Everything we hit was right at someone. It was just one of
those days, Bangs said. We got to that championship game and
everyone hit, but everyone hit right at somebody.
Newcastle led 4-1 going into the sixth inning, then pulled away
to win 10-1. After focusing on the state championship all season,
the loss was tough for the Bulls to take.
The losses never got to them (during the season.) They always
had a bigger prize in mind, Bangs said. They would come to
practice and work on what they failed on. It hurt them bad to
lose in that game. They wanted it, and I probably wanted it for
them more than they will ever know. But Im just proud as can be
of those guys. They came together as a group and worked their
butts off.
There is speculation that some Bulls players will play with
Newcastle in the upcoming regional tournament, though that has
not been confirmed.
