fishing this morning

[fatherof3]

Went down to try again this morning,Ethan actually woke me up to go.Got there,saw a bunch jumping and of course nothing biting.Here is a pic of Ethan keeping himself busy.

After a while I cast to a different spot and got this one first cast.

The next cast I get another one.When I reeled this one in I noticed its underside.Not sure what is wrong with it but Ethan thought it was pretty sick.

After that nothing else was biting so we left.

As for the reminder,I took the boys to the Credit River just to see what was going on.The water level is still pretty low but did see a few salmon trying to get upriver.This next pic reminded me of why I have decided to wait for a bit to try fishing a river.

This was just one side of the hole.All told there must have been 30-40 anglers working this one hole.There were tangle ups a lot and no fish being hooked.Saw maybe 3 fish splashing and jumping around the hole but that was it.I don't know if I am getting old or what but standing that close to so many other people is not working for me this year.Anyway,we walked the river a bit,lots of guys fishing,1 fish caught but at least the scenery was nice.

Was a long day and the boys slept all the way back but was nice to get out and enjoy the weather.

Exactly the reason why I avoid the circus. Only when it is October\November is when you see me out there and

have the river all to myself.

atleast you caught some and great pics of the trees. I would never take my kids to a place with that many people. Would definetly get some tangles with the way my kids cast out. We'll stick to our ponds, they are still biting.
