Caught a couple of nice reddies today. Trout have slowed right off since holiday stocking. Hope everyone is well, been awhile.

I've been there three times in the last couple of weeks - one session managed to drop two rainbows at my feet, about 12-13 inches both.
The other two sessions didn't even get a bite, but still a nice relaxing spot to sit and watch the world go by.

Went up to Don Lake for a few hours today - figured I couldn't sit inside while the sun was shining.
Had a few half hearted hits but no hook ups.
There were about 12 cormorants working the lake, figured they were scaring all the fish off the bite. The buggers actually bought up a few good sized Redfin and Trout.
Frustrating few hours watching them getting the fish and me getting nothing. Still better then sitting in the recliner all afternoon.

Was a nice day. Definitely better than being at home on the couch
