Default Winni Derby 2012 Pink Rainbow Preview (video)

We had our usual blowout in Moultonborough last weekend, I am still sorting pictures but I have one vid and a few pics ready, so I thought I'd put up a few.

This is a rainbow caught by a young lady in our group. When we got the trout on the ice it disgorged several tablespons of pink powerbait goo, which probably explains its odd color: it's bright PINK!





I won $100 in one of the drawings and also got a bit of a shock when I picked it up. There were a pile of NH Fish & Game freshwater digests at the window over at the Board, and as I waited for the moo-lah I thumbed through one.



Now, last year I'd taken a nice shot of a laker caught by my buddy Craig that won 2nd place:



Imagine my shock when, on page 32 of the digest I saw this:



And later when I got home I logged into the F&G website and what did I see:



So I called F&G and asked them how they got my pic and they said I'd submitted it to a fish pic contest last summer in the Union Leader and they decided to use it! Coolness...
