3-11-06 fishing report

[Seth]

My buddy and his girlfriend and then my girlfriend and I got down to the springs at about 1pm today. Fishing was pretty good, the catching wasn't. Got lots of bites, but had a heckuva time keeping them hooked.

Rainbow and white powerbait got bit good. Also, my buddy used some brown "007" bait. I caught a few on the green body/head white rubber legged jigs.

Three of us limited out and my girlfriend only landed one. Me and my girlfriend caught ours at the Lazy Hole and my buddy and his girlfriend caught all theres at the bridge.

I was fun to fish in such beautiful weather. The crowds were pretty heavy also though.

Right before the buzzer sounded I was fishing upstream from the Lazy Hole on the sidwalk and I seen one of the lunkers from opening day left over. I would guess he is about a 4 lbers. He came up and nosed my jig but turned away and then I lost him.

Loads of fish in the Lazy Hole as always and there are a lot right along the sidewalks above the Lazy Hole.

River was up a little bit and had more current than usual, but it's still pretty clear.

Where you been crossing the river?My son got smacked in the head with a fishing rod by some old lady for crossing the riffle below the steps. More and more people seem to be fishing the shallow riffles below the steps and bathroom holes.I'm glad he just smiled and kept going he took enough "ribbin".It would have been bad if I would have to fish him out after she thru him in!!!Some of those little old ladys can be pretty tough you know.

I can just imagine that sight lol. Yes I agree some of them ol ladies down there take there trout fishing serious hehe.

I parked above the hatchery and walked down to the sidewalks. Normally when I am wearing waders I park in the gravel parking lot then cross the bathroom hole riffle.

It was jam packed with people thats for sure. Lots of people were getting tangled quite often and getting aggravated lol.
