A drop in flows

A piece of water had a drop in flows that made it a little more fishable. it was still high and a work out to wade but it was fishable. didnt see a whole lot of action, saw a few, including a couple solid fish but only landed 2 of the average kind. was nice throwing meat on moving water again while enduring a run off hiatus from the rivers

A trip to the lake

Its ice off time. we drove out to the lake after hearing some positive reports. most of it is thawed off but there was some coves that still a good amount of ice. the fishing was pretty damn good, in fact never had a better day out there before and certainly not on streamers at ice off. usually ice off works better nymphing for me but id much rather throw streamers so it worked out quite well. only bummer is out of all the fish we caught there was nothing over 20", everything pretty much was the standard 18-19 " size. it was windy but the weather was still good, till we started walking out. twas a killer day
