A few months ago I posted the following photo of a great cutthroat I caught on a small spring creek in central Idaho:

A Big Cutthroat That Rose to a Little Yellow Sally Dry Pattern.

I didn’t realize it but this photo turned out to be inspiration for a great painting created by Larry Harris, a frequent follower of my BLOG.  Larry donated this painting to the Catskill Rodmakers Gathering Auction last month in New York.  As it turns out, Larry’s painting sold in the auction and helped raise money for the Catskill Fly Fishing Museum.  That’s pretty cool to see that and ‘Great Job’ to Larry.  Here is a photo of the painting Larry did, along with a great bamboo rod that Larry made himself:
