It was a perfect weather morning. it was damp, foggy and fairly warm. the fish bite was only early but then really fizzled on us as we got further upstream. we ran into some real nice fish but the bigger ones were not to be had. we did muster some decent fish though.

Looking for redemption
I went back to the same section i had fished a few days earlier due to the amount of quality fish i moved, but couldnt land and matt came out and joined me. it rained on us pretty good most of the afternoon but we did get into a few fish, not like the other day but matt did land a decent fish in the 19-20 inch range

Cutts
Had to take the day off the other day so i chose to hit the water for a couple hours in the morning. moved a good amount of fish and saw a handful of real nice fish, but couldnt land any of them. did manage to land 3 cutthroat though and that is very odd that all i caught were cutts. the morning was brisk but pleasant

The big lake
Drove out to the berry for maybe the last time before ice off a few months down the road. it wasnt a great day but it was good enough to keep us there for a few hours. we got into a few fish, including a small few on mice. the others were on streamers. the weather was phenomenal for a early mid December day.

Spawn is over
...but the fish will take a bit to get back into the fishable swing of things. some fish can still be caught but usually there is a recovery period after the spawn before fishing gets better. me and matt went out for a couple freezing hours the other day and we did get into a few fish and matt did land one good one that surprisingly wasnt beat up and still very clean. it was 8 degrees when we got to the river and 10 degrees when we were done
