Rustic-Fisher Posted May 6, 2008 Report Posted May 6, 2008 (edited) Well the game plan was supposed to be canoeing the back lakes for Brookies. But having just gotten of night shift I opted for a slower pace. Decided to cover ground and drive to some back road/4x4 trail spots that I have fished in the past. I was a little nervous about going to deep down some of the trails without a buddy incase we needed to pull one and other out of mud or up inclines ect..(my truck is the one pulling most times LOL..) I managed to find this years beaver dam on one of the creeks or trickles I fish and the brookies were also there. Caught loads of the 7"-9" fish and even lost some that had to be close to 16" in the wood (I know!!! another fish story LOL....) but losing a few big boys is what keeps ya coming back I guess? Great day to be out, even keep a few for a feed and they tasted great!!! And as stated before, yes the black flies are hatching. Break out the spray. Rf Edited May 6, 2008 by Rustic-Fisher

Mike the Pike Posted May 6, 2008 Report Posted May 6, 2008 Nothing like the fight of those small wild brookies while wading in a stream. Great pics.MTP
