We worked the Bear River Sunday, nice weather, got nothing but pestered by wasps and donated a couple more hook leaders to some snags.
Decided to give Willard another shot yesterday, Monday. Weather was very nice. Air temp at 0830 launch was 42, water temp in the south marina was 49, going up to 52 out at the feed lot, then 55 at 2:00 p.m. when we quit. Only saw 3 or 4 other boats on the water, and again, no fish harmed.
Cat contest was a real hoot this year. The wife signed up for the first time and got in to the high 70's which is better than I did the first couple years.
Many thanks to Jeff for keeping the contest running, again........[

Was nice meeting some BFT faces at various venues.
Ahi1953 (John) enjoyed sharing some of the river spots with you again this year. jig-fisher, ice sled, Pisco, hook set, BLK, r2u2, Mrs. J, enjoyed the contacts and reading your contest posts.
This is where the year starts to get busy with family gatherings, and holidays.
Hope to see as many as possible at the Contest Dinner sometime in November.
As many of you continue to fish, and even venture out on to the ice this winter, please take care and caution.
Best of luck.............[fishin]
