Fishing with Paul Bobby

The main reason that we returned to Mountain Home was to fish with Paul Bobby. Paul is a transplant to this area by way of Alaska, where he was stationed in his military service as Military Police. He also was a fish guide there.

We fished with Paul here last year and found him to be a real nice guy and a conscientious guide (that means that he is committed to giving you the best service and to put fish on your line).  He works to give you a great experience.

He runs a river guide service called GI on the Fly. www.gionethefly.com

Although we are Kevin and Alicia, Paul often calls us Sir and M'am. Hard habits to break for a GI.

Here's a shot of Paul making Alicia happy by getting her into a good sized fish - a 20" rainbow trout.  (Alicia is still getting the hang of holding a big fish without it flopping out of her hand - so Paul is holding it.)

Two days later ... an even bigger fish ... 24" rainbow ... this time, Alicia made Paul happy. Always good to make your guide happy.

A "two-fer" ... we both hooked fish at the same time...

Another nice rainbow ...
