Contest - Name the Fishing location

[BrianID]

[size 3][black][font "Times New Roman"]Name the body of water and a general area of the body of water the picture was taken. The first person to name all 6 bodies of water, will win a half dozen flies or jigs that I tie. They will also get their choice of a BFT hat, BFT shirt or BFT Flag.[/font]
[font "Times New Roman"]The pictures are too wide to be posted inline so you will have to click on each of the links below to view them. [/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][/font]
[/black][/size][size 3][black][font "Times New Roman"]The rules are:
#1 You need a registered user name to win.

#2 All locations in the pictures need to be identified in a single post before the end of May 2007.

#3 Before you post your answer you must have made at least one other post on BFT Idaho within the last year under your registered username. It doesn't matter if the post was made only 5 minutes before you post your answer.

#4 If you don't identify all the locations correctly the first try you can try again but you may only make one post per day on this thread.

#5 You don't have to name the exact part of the reservoir or river but you do need to give a general location. For example “West side of Palies Reservoir” or “Snake River by Idaho Falls”. Answers like “Snake River” will not count.[/font]
[font "Times New Roman"][/font]
[font "Times New Roman"]Hint: all pictures were taken in Eastern Idaho. (Sorry, to you guys that don’t fish this part of the state, I’ll have another contest with identifying species in a week or two)[/font]

Close but you didn't get all. Considering the poor quallity/lack of details of some of the pictures you did very good. I was trying to make this contest more difficult. If no one gets it after a few days I'll post some hints.

After going back through old posts of yours hoping to find clues[], I came up with the same answers as flyguy, so no need for me to guess.

Good guesses so far but no one has all of them correct. Considering the poor quality and difficultly of some of the pictures, I'm surprised by how well everyone has done.

Here are some additional pictures to help with a couple of the more difficult ones.

Picture 3b shows a SW view while standing in the same place picture 3 was taken. Picture 3 shows a NW view.

Picture 6B shows a view from the shore not far from where picture 6 was taken.

Remember you need to give the general location of the river/reservoir in all 6 pictures to win.

I'll post another contest with species of fish to identify before the end of the week.

Very close but you didn't get them all.

[BrianID]

Here is another hint.
At least one person has identified the correct location for the first 5 pictures. No one has been able to get picture #6 yet.

[BrianID]

We still need a winner for this contest.

Here's another hint.
I could be wrong but I believe ReelLady's Avitar shows her standing in the parking lot of the place picture #6 was taken.

[black]Actually, I'm sitting in a boat...but I know where the boat is floating and the direction I'm facing, but I sure don't recognize that building in the photo. Of course, that photo is about three, maybe four, years old and maybe that parking lot has changed. [sly]

We have a winner. ReelLady, send me a PM so you can claim your prizes.

Was your avitar picture taken at Henry's Lake State Park? It looks like Raynolds Pass right behind your hat.

[ReelLady]

I don't actually feel worthy since I only got the Daniels picture because everyone else seemed sure of it. That photo was on Henry's on 5/28/2005 and that is Raynold's Pass behind me.

[BrianID]

You still named all of them correctly, and were able to identify the two most difficult ones. Henry's Lake State Park was a difficult one because of the poor picture quality and you were first to recognize Twin Bridges by Blackfoot.

For those interested, here's a picture of the prizes.

I got the t-shirt, sticker and the fishing gear...thanks! The flies and jigs look very nice and I plan to try them out at Henry's this weekend. If we catch anything (or see flygoddess catching), we'll post up some photos with your jigs hanging out their mouths.

Thanks again, Brian!

Good to hear they arrived in time for your trip. I'll send you a PM with more information about the flies/jigs that I sent you.
