Paulus Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Well, it wasn't anything like my last trip with Solopaddler, and I almost packed it in early. I visited several tributaries yesterday morning only to find that most of the rivers and creeks were lower and clearer than I'd expected, and a heavy wind rose about mid morning to really chill the bones - all of which usually means "go home." Luckily, the last river on my list was in perfect condition. I could tell, by the full parking lot & the heavily trampled shore, that it had been pretty well dredged. But I managed a couple, nonetheless, & I lost another. Saw some geese, too. Oh... and a ducky... p.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulus Posted January 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 (edited) Nice fish buddy!Wish I could have made it out with you slow fishing or not. Would've been nice, bud. You might have known to avoid the specific mistake I made in the early, early morning (i.e. fished the wrong spot on the right river) - otherwise, you missed a cold day... no biggie! Before you know it, March will be here... btw, a hunter buddy of mine says that the duck is a Bufflehead. p.- Edited January 15, 2008 by Paulus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulus Posted January 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 Nice fish!! Your buddy is right, definitely bufflehead. Back in the day, we called them butterballs. Fat little ducks. At first I thought he was calling ME that They are shy little guys & seem to be good divers. One of these days I'll get a better camera & then I'll really deliver the shots p.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
