Len's Trip Reports

[Driftless]

Andy Kurth and I went out opener.

I watched most of the morning and sat every 10 minutes due to back fatigue.

Andy landed 13 and I managed 6.

[Driftless]

11 browns to hand in 1 hour.

Used deep diving lures. Zip lure and deep diving shad rap.

Water temps dove 6 degrees while I was there. Run off from snow melting.

Hit the water at 8am.

I went to a spot that is 5 miles below the closest designated water.

I had not fished here in three years due to my knee and back pain.

Is a long stretch and I sat down every 10 minutes.

Was really sunny and I thought the trout would be effected by it.

The trout shunned the deep water today. They were behind structure in broken water in about 2 feet of water sunning themselves.

They were not choosy and hit almost everything I threw at them.

Today was a dozens day.

44 browns to hand today.

04/11/2015

9 browns to hand and then sun came out and shut them down.

Stopped on the way home at a beaver dam on the edge of the road.

7 brookies to hand in no time flat.

Examined gills and what I saw made my skin crawl.

Imagine trying to breath with these things attached to your lungs.

TR 4/14/2015

Richland County

9 browns to hand

4 brookies.

Stream typically does not have brookies due to warm water temps in summer. The fish manager must be wasting our resources again and planting brookies where they won't survive.No gill lice

[Driftless]

18 to hand today

2 twenty inchers.

Len, you have some pretty short TR’s. When you are out posting on the interwebs keep an eye out for a poster under the handle of Mexico Returns. Man, that guy can carve out some impressive TR’s. If you’re really nice to him he might PM you contact info for some of his contacts. I think you would enjoy a trip to see Tevin at the end of the Grand Bahama Hwy. He sounds like a helluva stick and a good time is had by all. Although, make sure you take all the precautions Mexico Returns advises as it may turn into a bad trip.

The pink squirrel ruled.

Mike Sr landed 18 browns.

Mike Jr. landed 22 browns.
