Let me tell you that ain’t easy for a fat old hunter. Here is a 150lb tracker holding same cat.

Man, that's awesome Mort! Congrats!

Not nearly as epic as brother Mort's excellent trophies, this was my memorial weekend Trophy from the Mountains. 22" Cutthroat on my flyrod. I forgot all about my cigar when I hooked it lol. You can read about it, and others, in my post "No country for old men".
Cheers.

@Brent in Az, man that's a beauty! Can you keep them, or is catch and release?

You can keep them. I release the big females for conservation reasons.

Here's a toast to Mort, and his safe return from the land of wild things. Cheers, to that, and those fantastic trophies.
Well done, Sir Mort!

Well.....that first cigar went down quick. The first one of the weekend always does. I forgot to put in my Cigar page order before I went on Holiday, and ran out of cigars yesterday ( The Horror). Had to stop down to the Cigar shop to get my fix.

Partagas 1845

I never tried this before. It's a tapered torpedo, that tapers bigger all the way down to the foot. I've never been into funky shaped cigars, but it's actually pretty good, even with a somewhat tight draw.

I’m killing this cold I have with a Padron 1964 Anniversario

I smoke this cigar to celebrate my mom’s 80th b-day. Thank you Uncle Mort . I failed to take pictures of the other cigars I smoked when I was in Florida

Happy Birthday to Oscar’s Mom! May she enjoy 80 more.

BTW My Mom turned 94 in March. I told her may she enjoy 94 more. She said “ Oh dear Lord I hope not!”

Trying something a bit different (Graycliff 10 year vintage), this was a gift and not my usual smokes. I’ll let you guys how it goes

The Gnome approves.

I picked up one new (to me) Alec Bradley Project 40, and a Le Bijou for reading Mort’s hunt report.
