Headed over to one of our more local lakes to see if ice off had begun yet. nope, she was still all locked up. you could see that the shoreline in some spots were thinking about it but it was still all iced over. i went and looked at the spill way and some of the upper creek. saw some decent fish and a bunch of smaller risers. i threw a small streamer to start with but no action. decided to switch to a bobber (disgusting word) and nymph type shit. caught a little brookie on a balance leech. i love the drive up there cause once you get off the hwy there usually some good wildlife action to see. on this drive there was a bald eagle right off the road snacking on some dead critter then i saw a big Tom strutting his stuff for the ladies

Something different
Headed out with Matt and Logun to a place i dont fish but maybe once, twice a year, just not a fan of nymphing. the weather was decent but the temps were, as expected, chilly as fuck in the morning but then slowly started to warm up. it wasnt an overally productive day as far as numbers but some big fish were landed, as well as a few small ones. Logun ended the day with a day maker, a rainbow that was pushing 30 and girthy as all get out.

Out and About
Took a drive to see what kind of water i could find. found a little stretch that was in fishable shape. it was cold as shit in the morning but did eventually try and warm up. the fishing was actually pretty decent during the 1st half of the morning with a handful of fish and missed 3 banger fish. i got up to a certain point and it kind of died down but i still did manage a couple more fish. it was not a wasted morning

Something a little different
Hit a different section of the river that i havent paid much attention to this year. the flows, of course, are still up but the fishing was decent for awhile till it just shut off. was gonna keep goinmg up but decided to call it when i did. got into a few fish so it wasnt a total wasted effort.

Warmer weather
Its been nice and toasty around these parts, for January at least, for the last week, almost spring like. unfortunately it seems to have brought the flows up some but we were still able to find a few fish.
