A Great Day For Fishing

Alain & Cindy joined me today for what turned out to be their best fishing this season. We hit the water somewhere after 8:00 and they were hooked up on the first drift. Water temps were almost 48 degrees in some areas and 46 in others. Air temps were a little cool but mid 40’s for this time of year is a welcomed thing! We had on & off sunshine throughout the entire day and light winds from the north. A mix of fishing styles were tried but slow was always the rule as they put a beating on many a smallie. I think it was Cindy that took top fish today with several close to five pounds. Although there weren’t any real big ones landed, there were definitely plenty of fish in the 3 to 4 pound range making this a great numbers outing. They caught fish all day and never really went any length of time without someone hooked up. They even had many double headers along with the pile of single fish landed! By the time it was all over, they had managed to catch so many fish that they lost tract of the count. That’s not a bad thing to have! We fished until about 3:30 and decided to call it a day. They had caught more than their fair share of fish today and were satisfied with leaving a little early. Overall this was definitely a great day to go fishing!!
