Long Weekend Getaway

[fish_finder]

Managed to sneak away from the city for the long weekend. Spent all three nights sleeping beside the river.

A few pics from the adventure.

Spent a bit of time in the afternoons foraging for tasty wild edibles....one of my favourite spring time treats - wild leeks!

And a couple of the nicer fish.

A couple more weeks until the Green Drakes start doing their thing out there. Can't wait!

Some very beautiful fish there. I spent all day doing the chuck and duck at logjams yesterday trying to catch some decent browns. Lost one about fifteen inches but that's all the luck I managed to have. Did watch a spent steelhead doing nose to tail rises at the tailout of a pool. Wish I would have had the proper filter that I could have caught it on video for everyone. I love wild leeks and wild garlic.

Five great pics that told a perfect story. And on top of that, you actually told a story.

The leaks look very similar to wild garlic...which I'll be eating tonight, along with fiddleheads and splake! Any tips on telling the difference other than smell/taste?
