Yeah, I just got done processing my fish. I may be slower than average, but it took a loooong time. $140 seems like a bargain!

I'd visited these two lake last year with a friend, and we gotten rained on, wet, and miserable. I didn't even land a fish, so a rematch was in order and I headed back after the first of our two recent rain events. I sort of expected this area to be crowded, and was pleasantly surprised to only...

That's a great looking sammich.

Now I want to see a Jerry Garcia/Bobo Salmon mashup photoshop.

The other night our cat heard something outside that piqued her interest. We went outside to investigate and heard an adult owl plus something I'd never come across, a juvenile's "sheeew" call. A minute or two later I saw an adult fly from a cedar tree a block to the east. This is in the N end...

A little video featuring Ronnie Ray-gun and Burgess Meredith:

Having looked at the book some more, I'm going with Ringneck for now.

Great report, and very pretty area! I admire your work-around for the wet weather.

How is the trail? Last time I was there, August 2024, it was blowdown hell. I think the NFS and WTA have gone in and cleaned things up.

Awesome work! That lunker was a long time ago. At that time there seemed to be a good insect population; lots of active Callibaetis nymphs. I fished basically all day without a real shot at the infrequent cruising fish, then just before we had to leave the magic happened. It was mostly luck...
