singingdog Posted March 4, 2008 Report Posted March 4, 2008 8 degrees in early March! I just had to get out yesterday and do some river fishing. Lots of snow, but a great day to be out. I only got 3 fish, but it was good to be out. The river The fish
Stoty Posted March 4, 2008 Report Posted March 4, 2008 Very nice! Is that a little hair jig that you were using??
Casey123 Posted March 4, 2008 Report Posted March 4, 2008 Wow, That is one fat little Rainbow, time for Jenny Craig
bucktail Posted March 4, 2008 Report Posted March 4, 2008 I am amazed you found enough open water that was slow enough to drift! Good going!

canadian_copper Posted March 4, 2008 Report Posted March 4, 2008 NICELY DONE BRO!!! LITTLE HARD WORK SOMETIMES PAYS OFF
singingdog Posted March 5, 2008 Author Report Posted March 5, 2008 It's fast water for sure. I was bottom-bouncing with 1/16 or 1/8 oz jigs. Stoty, that is a hand-tied jig. It's a black wooly-bugger tied on a 1/16 oz jig head. I use hair as well, but this day it was the wooly-bugger that got all of them
Mike Pike Posted March 5, 2008 Report Posted March 5, 2008 Nice job on that beauty Bow and the jig! Must be really satisfying to not only hook into fish like that with the conditions at this time of year, but to be able to trick 'em with something you tied yourself.. well that's like the icing on the cake. Thanks for the post and pics!
