Checking some stillwater

since the rivers are currently shot around my neck of the woods i drove over to a different river and a lake in that area. that river was also blown and the lake is still froze over except the left finger which always seems to thaw 1st. when i was up high and over looking the lake i noticed that someone had gone to the center of the lake and had written in giant letters, FUCK JOE BIDEN. comical. fished a small section of the thawed stuff but saw or felt nothing

A day off is a day out

 Well for at least an hour or 2. went out at 0700 and found a little piece all to myself. the weather was warm for march annd although the fishing wasnt as good as last time there, the fish were still moving just not as many and no bigger ones. still a fun morning

A quickie after work

just went for a quick drive upriver. most of the local waters are still dirty but i found a piece that was doable. proved to be pretty productive as far as moving fish but i only landed a small few but the 1st one was a nice little cutt. 

Solo sunday

 I had plans to fish with matt and logun in idaho but i had to bail on that one. with our local waters being dirty lately and me not wanting to drive any distance, i geared up anyway and decided to drive around and see if i could find anything fishable. i found some water that was low and not quite as dirty as everything i saw so i decided to give it a go. ive had good fish days there in dirty water before so i was optimistic. fished for about 3 hrs. the 1st hr and a half were insane, saw several big fish, moved 30-40 fish and landed about 1/2 of those including my biggest of the year so far at 23 inches. the last hour and half or so only saw a few fish. it really kind of trickled off. was a killer few hours overall.

A rare rainbow

me and matt headed out at o'dark thirty as we always do. the weather was good and we got into a decent amount of fish. i ended up hooking into a holdover rainbow hatchery brat. god they are ugly fish. twas a decent day

After work

 Went out for a couple hrs after work. slow but got into 1 or 2

Morning solo session

It was supposed to storm but the weather held out till i was off the river. i fished a couple of sections but neither did much producing. gotta couple of smaller fish, didnt see anything big

Cut out early

Matt gave me a shout that he was leaving work early to fish. i of course was down. the fishing has started to pick up but this wasnt the day. matt did get into a few fish and i came up empty handed. great weather though

Nobody around

Gotta love it when you show up to the piece of water you want to fish and there is no one around. the weather was good but the fishing was so so, which even out the shit fishing i had and the few fish that matt got into. matt got some good fish

Starting to pick up

Since i had friday off i went out to look for soome fishable water. found a little piece that was surprisingly void of people. the weather was great and i got into a handful of good

fish 

Big fish day

It was the best big fish day that ive had in awhile. saw 6 that were at least 20" and 2 for sure that were 2 footers. i lost my 1st 2 footer of the day within net range, but no net on me. i was eventually rewarded with a 21 incher which was my biggest to hand that day. pleasant weather and day.
