I used to go up to the White Mountains often when I was younger, with my dad. Really good trout fishing at a bunch of those lakes.

So, my neighbor let me fish in his private pod, and I pulled out about 20 12"+ bass in half an hour. It was awesome. I didn’t get any pics 'cause my camera was dead. That was the only time I get to fish there, though 
The little fish are starting to awaken in the nearby lakes, but I’ve only gotten bluegill so far. It’s been in the 60s for a week, so I’m hoping the water is warm enough to bring the bigger fish closer.
Small city pond within walking distance of my house. Fountains and decorative rocks etc. Nobody thinks there are any quality fish in there. I know different… Key is getting there early before fountains turn on and sight fishing the clear water with soft plastics. My personal favorite: black and red sweat beaver.

The ponds around here all have fountains that turn on five minutes before you can fish in them (fishing starts at 6:30 am, which is about as gay as San Fransisco). I am not sure why they run the damn fountain on my dollar at 6:25 in the morning, really who is there to see your gay ass pond and fountain at 6:30 in the morning besides me, you’re just screwing up my visibility.
Sweet Sunday, instead of listen to and watching the Nuck hype hockey, went mountain steelheading with my oldest son, nice evening fish, hiking canyons and nobody around.
Ended up with 8 caught & relesed, 2 chrome bright fish, rest a bit colored, 1 kelt.
I really need a camera to show off.

Yeah you do! but I’ll keep it up!!
Mexy Break
We went smelt fishing last night in Queenston on the Niagara River. What a great time! There were about 200 people there and the nets were flying. We caught about 30 or so before my husband threw the net into the water… funny as hell to see him dive down onto his belly on the rock to try to catch it. It was awesome to see all of the home made contraptions that were made up and one guy even made his own dock- just unloaded it in 3 pieces from the van and assembled in the water and there you go!

I’ll raise you one (cause I live on the Coast) We had about 100 large prawns and couple dozen crabs last night from our traps!!! So much butter and bbq steaks aaahh
And last weekend I took out 2 sweet Greek old locals and we Hali it up!!
I’m torn between fresh Coho (Sockeye and Chinook too) and Halibut!!!
BBQ, Poached, Fried, Steamed aaahhh (more drool)
Def love the nature, and sport of freshwater river fly, spey, and gear fishing better than running my saltwater gear but the eating is wayyyy better!!!
I caught an 8# large mouth off structure out of Lake Pleasant yesterday morning, on top of 6 5#er’s off rocks.
FINALLY got some time to go fishing tonight and tomorrow. Bought some new lures to flick around. Going to have a shot off the rocks tonight and then out with the surf rod to flick around the larger lures and hopefully some fresh bait that I’m aiming to catch tonight.

One of my fishing buddies and I ordered some Tazzie devils two weeks ago, haven’t got here yet but I"m fucking dying to try them. I’ve been asking around and only one dude has heard of them and another seen one many years ago. The Pink Panther I hope will do well downrigging, the others I picked mainly for fishing rivers and ponds.
I ordered four lures off e-bay and after the costs it comes out to $32 Canadian which is fantastic considering the average cost of a Rapala for example goes for $10 or $12 here. I check the mail everyday like a little kid lol.
The weather’s still freezing here, we can’t seem to shake off winter. Was in the 50s though, so I went for a couple hours. I was mostly catching little things so I only had 2lb line on. Out of nowhere a giant rainbow trout flips out of the water and grabs my Powerbait, and the line snaps like nothing. Was depressed.
I kept these four little guys and grilled them with cayenne pepper and kebabs for dinner.
