Wow! Nice Laker there as well as the others. Looks like you're making the most of it.

One little guy on an EWG Ned Rig. They wanted a quick pop to get them to reaction strike so I missed a couple figuring that out but not a good afternoon. My little local reservoir is dead! Lol. I know good things are to come, maybe the warmer nights next week will get them going.

Think the fish are getting sluggish saw some bass at my little lakes they come over like they are going to take it but then stop and look at it.

Can't believe it hit. Me thinks it's a big goldfish. Very light in color with spots. Not really a good pic.

10+ hrs round trip, brought the carnival with me adding $hundreds and cutting fishing to essentially 1 day. Morning was best I’ve seen for 30 mins. Then shut off and I was the last one turning out the lights at dark and making the long unknown wade out in the dark with a bottle of water as my only sustenance all day. I did squeeze in a few hours this AM starting an hour pre-daylight. No hot bite this time and waded out at 9 to get the family for the 5 hour trek home.


So in summary, 1 Steelhead (thanks @Solitario Lupo, your black nymph thing was the only thing that worked), 12+ hours driving in 3 days, extra hotel costs, way more in all the take out meals for the horde, no peaceful solitude on the ride = 1 Steelhead,,,,,,,,,,, totally worth it all.

Oh, honorable mentions, kids and wife apparently saw a Great Lake for the first time

And I added an hour to show them the elk, even saw a few monster bucks. Same Gamelands I saw them 4 years ago. We watched a little shoving match but then I noticed the biggest just bedded behind them in the pic ignoring the other large bulls shenanigans.





Also field is marked as huntable Gameland I think so must be love on this brute’s mind, looked like an easy 140” 10 pt through my 10x50 swaros, bet if I crept into field edge he’d grow a brain though.
