First, Friday...
Managed fish swinging in local waters. Nothing huge or Chromed out, but given the clear low conditions, good considering the weeks thus far...
Saturday was a later fishing day...with alot of walking and exploring. I grabbed Justin @ the shop and we headed toward some newwer water for me. After skipping a few bedding fish, we ran into a few tailouts and runs holding some decent fish. None were chrome but fish were definitely active and wanting to eat, with rolls every few minutes...
Sunday was supposed to be the day. Warm, sunny...and fishing the Larger of our rivers (The Grand) seemed like an amazing idea. With clear conditions on the other rivers, it seemed like the right idea. 10" of visibility, 2 bad hook-ups, and 4 hours later...we headed further east to try and sight fish. After finding some ideal conditions, we ended up walking another 2 miles for only one fish...bewtween 3 of us.
So to summarize for the math genius in us all, we got one damn fish all day in what we thought would be ideal conditions. It was not a fun day considering the conditions, but we can't complain about the company. Justin was able to wiggle out of shop work, and TJ was able to get out here from Sandusky. Too bad....
Anyways...it's safe to say that winter fish are starting to become more active. We need a little warmer temps and higher water to get some fresh fish into the rivers before the "real" spring run starts...but we'll take the fish as they come. Provided the water and temps done get too high for too long...and we keep mild, the run should last for a good while here...
