Finally got a chance to go fishing for a while...

[White95Max]

I was in need of a nice day to go fishing for a while...just to relax for a couple hours. I`ve been working a lot trying to save up money for a Protege.



It was a great day on the water. This stream about 15 minutes from me now has a successful naturally reproducing trout population. It was a blast to catch these on my ultralight tackle. :xyxthumbs I was counting them until I got to 15. I lost count at that point.

I might have to go back and bring a few home for a nice sandwich. :)

Mmmmm trout!

How big are they? Do you usually catch and release? I am a catch and eat kind of guy.

[White95Max]

Most of them were only about 8-9 inches. A couple may have been close to a foot.



Here`s one of the bigger ones...not quite as beautiful as the first pic...

Mmm mmm good. Pan fried is the only way to go. Here`s to you getting more fishing time.

[White95Max]

I got to go fishing again today...I was about 35 miles north of here for work, so I decided to take the kayak with me to work, and after work I`d go fishing/paddling on the lakes just north of there.



Here I am at the first lake....

Can you believe I didn`t catch/see one fish around that woodpile? :nixweiss

[White95Max]

Once again, didn`t catch anything by all that wood.



But one good thing came out of that woodpile. Look closely...

Yep it`s a Rooster Tail. My favorite lure. :woot:

So I didn`t have any bites at all the whole day at both lakes. I didn`t even see any fish!



So what do you do when you can`t catch anything for the life of you?







Why you take a lunch break of course!

In the pretzel picture. Is that water on the floor is just discoloration?
