Nice pics mike hope to see more cheers!

this first pic of the fat brown trout was odd,got to the river kind of late and i spotted this fish cruising close to shore.I followed him a bit but he didn't take off so i casted my spinner about ten ft ahead of him and reeled in and he hit it.When i landed him i went woah what a pig still hungry with a gut like that,i gave the belly a little pinch it wasn't hard so i think something was wrong with his air bladder,also noticed clipped fin which isn't the norm for where i was fishing must have came in from another system

second pic also odd and dumb someone had dumped a few salmon carcasses off one of the bridges into the river.I figure somebody caught these at one of the lakes and to lazy to dispose of them into the garbage but maybe they were just feeding the crayfish and birds

Also got to try some new water which was fun.water was very clear but still managed to get six trout 4 bows 2 browns and one spec midday fishing yet.

The rest of pics are from my regular creek which has been tough to fish so far this yr because of all the rain.Water has been high but fishable,but haven't been able to wade it so have to miss out on many spots.I,ve noticed on many of the days when water has been higher i haven't been getting many of the smaller guys as when the water has been at nominal levels.

this last fish is from last week and cant say much about it but a nice surprise at the least.

all fish were released

nice work sounds like you had a blast!

nice

welcome aboard

I just recently got back into spinner fishing last summer and now i,am hooked.Pretty much all my good size fish the last season have been on spinners here's a preview.All but one fish were released can u guess which one? nope not the hens they go back to do their thing

i had a photo gallery when i first joined they must have changed the site since?

what happened to my photo album can't find it anywhere in my profile? Am i looking in the wrong place?

nice fish mike and good to hear you are recovering well.hope to see you on a creek sometime.

thanks guys for your responses.Another question i have is how many of you use a snap swivel or barrel swivel? if not do you think not having the swivel makes the difference in catching.I don't use one and have friends that do and often even if they use the same spinner i will catch more fish.is there any truth to this?

My fave that i have been doing very well with is mepps aglia #2 brass.Whats yours?

nice job ron.I think i recognize one of those shots.

i also questioned the validity of the catch but just thought it would be a good pic :/

i didn't keep it it was someone else's stringer they thought it was a brown.I didn't really expect a speckle at the mouth there.That's why i thought maybe laker

i think this is a laker but it doesn't have the forked tail.anyone it was caught in goderich

nice fish guys

thats awesome where is that from?

nice work!I,am jealous

beauty photo shots and lots of nice fish

That is a nice fish... The black spots look awsome.... Is that K-W...Kitchener.

ya k-town

Hit a creek today found a few fish that followed my lure #2 brass river runner but didnt cooperate.Caught a smaller one tried for an hr or two more then moved on to the creek mouth for the last half hr of the day and got into this beauty.A nice ending to a windy rainy day

i like spinners to work the wood they are also good at the top of a run.#2 mepps gold or silver has been working well for me lately

yes the whisker has served well for 15 plus yrs and i got it used

Nice Browns and Bows too, do I see another whisker again? good to see they are still popular on the river, I like traditions in gear, maybe just an old age thing

yep only kept 2 fish all yr

Absolutely beautiful fish man . Those browns have some great colours.

 

Always nice to see those bigger fish let go, great for the future of the fishery.

working now
