I finally made it up to the Blackfoot Friday for the first time this year. Usually I have hit it 4-5 times by now. We got there around 8:30 and the temp was around 36. The water felt even colder. There was a slight breeze that picked up at times during the day to around 15mph. Just enough to make it feel cold. There was quite a bit of moss in the river for this time of year. We started fishing and I ended up with the first fish in about 30 mins. 16.5" Cut.

I landed 2 more in the next hour and lost a few also. My buddy had not landed one yet. We rounded a bend in the river and found a hole. Fish On!. My buddy landed 3 in about 15 min. I had quite a few bites, but could not get them hooked and landed.

After that, it was about one an hour. We ended up with around 14 caught for the day. All were between 13"-17" and all were Cuts. Seems it is a little slower than usual, but the size were all pretty standard averaging about 15". There weather is looking up for Sunday, I may have to head out and hit some place again.
