Fishing Planned For 6-15-08

Bring 4 dollars for a kastmaster spoon and be ready to catch some fish!

Seriously though, I will be down on the river just past the spring wearing Hip waders, a red "beer nuts" hat, and and a goofy, toothy grin... Gimme a call to let me know if you plan on meeting me.. I usually get there around 7 and don't leave until I want to...

Wow, the stream was up quite a bit! It took some work in my hip waders to get to the spots I wanted to on the stream, and then it took a bit of work to figure out how the park trout bite (which is weaker than a crappie sometimes), but once I got all that figured out...

I limited out in Zone Two for the first time! I have only fished there once before and got pushed around by the bigger guys... Anyways.. The fish were staying deem out in front of the rocks and deeper holes... I was shaking the lure on the bottom of the deeper holes and the biggest trout in the hole would come down to investigate.. Half the time they would bite, half the time they would walk.. Or swim, as it were..

Biggest one I caught was just under two pounds and fought like a 12 inch bass with a stomach ache.... Interesting... Brought five pounds home to put with the rest in the freezer and the frying pan.. I haven't been eating all of them, but have been giving them to some of my little old lady customers.. You know how when a little tiny old lady gets so excited about something that she shakes her fists in front of her chest? That has got to be the cutest thing in the world..

MDC Agent Walt Hutton stopped by and walked down to say hi to me while I was cleaning my limit... He was friendly enough when I greeted him by name and asked how his children were on fathers day without their daddy... You gotta respect the guy for what he does anyway.. He happens to be my neighbor.... Of sorts.... I think somebody said that you don't ever see the agents in the park, but on Hillbilly days it's different I guess..

Anyway it started to get warm around 10 and the bit came straight to the top and I was out... I need to learn to fly fish so I can walk to the tracker and back and keep catching them! I am nuts about fishing, eh?

No pictures cause I am lazy, and a trouts a trout eh?
