Angling the rivers - CoyoteSpinner - 08-11-2017
Haven't had much to report for a while. Sorry no camera, no pix.
But last weekend I didn't a little bopping about the rivers.
Hit a favored spot on the Bear, and love was on the line.
Pocket of bitty gills kept me entertained for a while. Light tackle, and those buggers will give ya a tug, and timing the set, they are quick to rob a hook.
Then a fat carp grabbed hold. Played that beast till he was tuckered enough, while I foraged for my pliers (forgot to bring a net!).
Had some other peckers nibbling, though mudcats. Nope, wee widdle channel kittens. Would have made smallest catch in the contest!
I was hoping for bass, crappie, and of course a walleye, but NOooooo. Tugs is tugs.
Next day stopped by the Blacksmith river, found a big hole, and visited with some feisty brown trouts that liked the wiggle of my curly tail. Sure are purdy fish.
