Finally got out for the first time this New Year and the wait was worth it. Fish both days this weekend with numerous reds caught, missed and tagged. All were aggressive and healthy. That electric chicken with the gold trout eye was doing the job. A swim bait done ok but the chicken was on both days. Wasn’t sure what to expect after this heck of a winter snow fall but the reds are still out there. Nothing on the Trouts at all but I’ll give it a try again soon to see if there is a change. Not much action on bait in the creeks but Birds were diving and the smaller species looked an if they were picking up glass minnow on the top. Lots of birds and this is a good sign at least for me.
This Beauty gave a strong pull and made me realize that I need a new reel. Struggled to get it to the boat took my time and got her tagged and released.
First Red of the 2018 season.
