Warmer weather

 Its been nice and toasty around these parts, for January at least, for the last week, almost spring like. unfortunately it seems to have brought the flows up some but we were still able to find a few fish. 

Got into a couple lookers

 Me and matt fished our way upstream to a target destination that has always, at least in the last dozen years or so that ive fished up to that point, has always been a big deep slower hole, but for the 1st time i saw it entirely filled in. we did however get into a good amount of fish including a couple decent ones and 1 really big one that my hook came out of about a foot from being in the net. matt got a real good look and figures it was 25-26", a heartbreaker for sure. all in all it was a pretty nice day to get out. 

Starting to see a few fish

 Its still not productive out but we are starting to see a few fish moving around here and there. we landed a couple each, nothing to write home about but enjoyable anyway.

On the books for the new year

Went out for a few hours the other day and although the water was still higher then i prefer this time of year, the weather was nice and snowy, which i dig. it wasnt overly good fishing but i did move a handful of fish and landed my 1st couple of 2024, so i am on the books.
