Tough day! Launched out of Hunters and went north to my usual spots. Worked hard for about 5 hours trolling for rainbows. Ended up catching one keeper on an OG1 2.44 in Perch. Also, caught and released one "Native" (unclipped hatchery?) long lining a jointed rapala in Fire Tiger. either way it was a beautiful fish. The pic doesn't really show it because I didn't want to take it out of the water, but it was every bit of 4 pounds. I guess that is one good benefit to releasing those fish. Eventually people are going to start catching some true monsters out of there in a few years as those released fish continue to grow. Weather was supposed to be nice, and I suppose it was other than the wind that cut to the bone. I wish I had a top and a heater on days like that. Either way it was better than being at the house.
