And tigers. I love tiger trout. The species that create them - a cross of a male brown trout getting dirty with a female brookie - come from such polar opposite worlds and have the good and bad about both of them mainly intact. They fight like someone stole their meal ticket and are as pretty as the trees are tall. They can be wary like a brown, but sometimes you can see that reckless brookie brain take over as they get stung on a missed hook set and come back like a great white, hitting the fly harder on the second take. Endless is the word for this place. We took a 9 hour dirt road drive back to the land of trash, pollution, and our loved ones. But we did stop to wash off some miles in the hot springs.
