I like fishing in the snow.
at the bottom of every post i make is a translator
did not measure it.
guess 20-21 inches
What do you see when you look at a photo?
Could something be white in your eyes and black in another's?
Life is seen differently by different people.
Is fishing sport or food gathering?
Could it be both?
Who is to say?
Natural reproduction is alive and well in Wisconsin.
Photo says it ALL
This brown was caught last year in the exact same hole. I was NOT sure it was the same trout until I did a little looking at photos.
The trout was skinnier than last year ...but about 2 inches longer.
After check the gill plate...
Last year...
This year....
It is the same fish.
The gill plate was noticeably longer too. Last year it looked like a Female....this year a male....
Last year...
This year....
It is the deepest hole in 300 yards and the trout hit within 4 feet of last year. Almost a year to the date.
Had the itch bad today.
Called my buddy Bruce Ristow.
We met at 11:30am.
The first few streams we drove by were way stained and high.
We decided to give one a try anyway.
I took a stream temperature and it was 34 degrees.
We walked upstream and low and behold...
A new beaver dam from last fall.
We camped on the beaver dam. We fished it for about one hour.
15 browns later we moved on.
The browns ranged from 12 to 18 inches.
We caught about another dozen and were getting tired.
I took the stream temp again and it was 32 degrees.
We thought about hanging it up.
We both agreed we drove too far and were out there anyway...
WHY not continue.
Glad we continued.
What would you use? Describe the set up.
Explain your rational on how you plan on hitting the hole.
Browns and brookies and maybe a wayward TIGER present.
Wisconsin in the middle of May. No obvious hatches.
This was his first cast in the hole.
The angler caught four trout in this hole.
Right side of hole is shallow and silted in.
The current shows you where the holes would be.
