Haven’t been sleeping right. Too much drama trauma right now. Can’t sleep? GO Fishing! First though was Cavanaugh, but downrigger is stashed 45 minutes from the boat, not smart. Nice cool morning with cloud cover so the back of my neck won’t get fried again. I have never had good luck at Campbell, always no fish or one fish. Today was the same but also different. Trolled 3/4 of a lap and tied into this 17” trout, looked bigger in the water! They always do to me. Just what I was looking for! Made a couple runs, including one at the boat and had to juggle the net and rod to reel it close again. Got it in the net for 5 seconds and the hook popped out. Whew! I thought it was going to jump out of the boat it still had energy to burn. Did another lap with no action, then called it a morning. Launched around 6:30 fish hit about 8 off the water by 9. Thanks to God for the natural beauty of this paradise we call home. Oh and you guessed it, same lucky Seps chartreuse spoon!
