I haven't gone out to fish for nearly three months now. A new addition to the family can really put a damper on one's fishing plans. However, I did manage to get out with the Mrs. and my son a little while back but it was more about giving the little man a ride in the float tube than actually fishing.
This time around, both kids stayed at home with some relatives so that the Mrs. and I could go chase some brookies for a couple of hours.
You know that you really want to go fishing when you drive for 2.5 hours, hike for an hour, and actually fish for a little under two hours. But hey, you do what you gotta do just to get out there and enjoy the time you have on the water even if it's quite limited.
I caught a couple, missed a few, and this 16 inch speck was the highlight of this short session. With fall just around the corner, trout season ending in the next few weeks and walleye prime time coming up, I'll surely hit the water again in the near future.... I can't wait to get back out there!!!
