First trip of new year
First trip of new year
Explored some new water Sunday in what was less than ideal conditions with it being drizzling and 35 degrees but had a chance to get out so didn't wanna pass it up. Figured I wouldn't last long with the cold and didn't have high expectations but once I hooked one I warmed right up. To me, there's nothing more fun than exploring new water, especially ones that are sorta off the beaten path and require a decent amount of walking. Ended up getting 3 which for me was a homerun on a day like Sunday.

Nice job! I hit a small stream Sunday but only had 1 hook up and lost that one when it got into a log jam. I did manage to hook just about every over hanging tree on the river!

Nice pics, glad you caught some. I was out Saturday on one of the few rivers where flow wasn't way to high. Managed to stick one but didn't land it.

Agreed. May we never meet on a streamside path!

Yeah, isn't exploring what it's all about? Fishing, gambling, or prospecting for gold--hoping to find that mother-lode. Nice photos! Keep at it!
