Believe beyond the 14” 2 lbers were Donaldson steelhead and the blue phase where ‘Loops variety rainbow.

I was busy reviving and pics I didn’t get Sat. Still doesn’t show true awesomeness

Wish pics did her justice, she’s two, three year olds are scaring 30” and 15 lbs now held for spring stocking. Never thought I’d be handling 10 lbs trout. Almost as nice as chasing steelhead.

Yeah they had nice color. The nuisance one was bright orange. There’s the monster Dino I released Sat that’s 12.5 lbs. She’s a greener color phase but just no heart to harass her if she’s still there. It’s a deep dark impenetrable spot, fit for a dragon or tiger of her stature.

Lots of tigers, this one was a fish foul fumble I snapped quick pic before release, others were much better and one ornery cuss outwitted me 4x then when the fix was in he rocketed over a fallen log/tree breaking main line,,,,

Guess I broke 10 lbs today on fringe of good holes. My friend kept my biggest and weighed. Thought I was under, didn’t even get measurements. Let a dozen similar go today. Good day but I’m worn out. Almost thinking Wed-Fri with in-laws might help me recuperate. Tomorrow is my last day for a few...

Biggest I landed was 8 lbs 6 Oz, 24”, lost a 10 +, my friend caught his first over 14”, got my neighbor into some too. In total over a dozen all measured in pounds. Glad I skipped Bear season and didn’t go west. Tomorrow back at it at 5am. Notice my fish is the biggest, looks smallest, and I...

I love it and never met a bad person yet. I made more friends my last trip and a guy that looked like the dwarf from LOTR told me a piece of sage advice. You get back what you put out. I gave up my prime spot, dropped my pole in gravel to net anyone’s fish near me, have my jumbo pack of...

I just remembered this. I’m out of WT tags but neighbors aren’t. I’ll leave this browser open and remember to ask them to save for you. I don’t have trapping gear any longer but the neighbor traps. I can probably get him to flesh it and preserve it for you too. I have a red fox to get tanned as...

Don’t blame me, I voted for Biden. No clue who’s actually running the country,,,,,,

I’m not sure I can tie even an intermediate knot like this. Took forever to get Palomar down after a lifetime of tying a weird hybrid home grown thing. I might give it a shot tough. I finally got snell down and it’s been a year so likely forgot it again.

Salmon eggs are a year now and when tying sacks last night looked better than the day I cured. I can’t get the cure down to hold them single hooked but they are plump and milk nice in sacks. I made a wet cure and just kept the extra when I boiled it. Steelhead skeins did great and suspect browns...

Todays eggs still look a bit fresh, give them a few days in my homemade cure and they’ll look nice and plump,

Caught a few browns and a bow, thought browns looked spawned out, bow looked fat, bro wanted to keep for grille, np, cleaning I found eggs in browns, so between the cured skein from 1 steelhead I kept for salmon candy, last years salmon eggs, the 4 vials of brown eggs I bought in Erie, brown...

Got out 4 hours tonight, found some Oyster shrooms too, my first wild mushrooms I was able to harvest. Fresh browns, oysters, venison back strap meal coming up this week,

Have some fresh cured skein and also wouldn’t mind a better way of keeping single eggs on. This know looks like it might be doable creek side. Anyone use it?

I’m running a soft Pinland 10’6” with a size15 spinning rod lately lol. Not sure what to make of it but the tip is designed for float fishing a mini pin and it’ll launch super light bait but seems to have a steep learning curve on loading. I like St Croix so I’m going in that direction for...

A bit small, the St Croix Wild River at 10’6” to 13’ is where I want to migrate to.

I was a few days early or late. Just talked to a new contact there. After I left it was slow.Two Day’s before I got there another guy I fish with was catching a lot.10–20 days in the flurry/overcast weather. Today the new contact got into 8+ pretty quick abd sent me pics. Sat started out so...
