While the others slept...

...I crept out of the house and headed to the river for a couple of hours. 1st time its been fishable in awhile and it didnt disappoint. only fished a short section but saw some really nice fish. of course the bigger ones i hooked up with i lost....so it goes. i did cut my morning just a smidge short cause the flows got bumped up on me and the debris started flowing to much to deal with

The Meadows

Took my daughter for a drive to the mountains as kind of a recon trip. just curious if the lakes had thawed yet. they are all thawed in that area and we hit a few of them for a very short time each. it was a pretty windy and cold day but it was nice to be in the mountains again.

A busy week

Fishing that is. once again after work i headed out for an hour or two. caught one solid fish right off the bat then i didnt land anything else. i did miss 4 other fish that were all real solid

Making a few casts

After work i drove over to the river for a few to practice my casting.

The usual quickie

After work ill often head out for about an hour just for a quickie

A few hours

Met up with matt for a few hours in the canyon. it was nothing special but we did get into a few on mostly streamers but i also missed a couple on a mouse. also while walking the boulders along the shore i stumbled upon an appendage, maybe a raccoons.

A little boat ride

Nate picked me up in the morning and we headed to the lake to chase some tiger muskies. for most of the day the weather was great but at the end of our day the winds came. it was a weekend so there were quite a few boats on the water. i only had one follow on the day and nate had five, with one hook up that was short lived.
