This is one of those life moments where you have to make lemonade out of lemons. It was a Colorado dude who was stuck in a traffic jam who decided to make the best possible use of his time by catching a fish.
Wyoming has a way of changing you. You may come to our state with one state of mind and then you realize that you see things differently after you've been here awhile. That seems to be true of Motley Crue's Nikki Sixx who now seems to be an avid fisherman.
The rest of the world knows Luke Bryan for his music and that American Idol judge gig. In Wyoming, we know him for his many successful fishing trips in our state.
Here's a fishing pro tip. If you're gonna go fishing, go where the bald eagles aren't. Two fisherman learned this the hard way as they were bested by bald eagles also looking for food.
I love this video of a kid catching his first fish for so many reasons! It brings back childhood memories for me of going out to Alcova with my entire family and learning how to fish. And then, of course, that glorious moment when you get that first fish on the line.
There are a lot of different ways to catch a fish but I don't think I've ever seen anything so odd when it comes to catching a monster catfish. We generally do it with a pole here in Wyoming. Apparently, not how they do things in Oklahoma.
It seems like every time I go out fishing with my friends or family, I never catch anything all that impressive. That is if I catch anything at all besides a sunburn. So when I saw this guy in North Dakota breaking a record by catching a 16.9-pound walleye I was super jealous.
