Hit the lake again this morning - turned out to be a popular idea. There were more people out today than there usually is on saturdays.
Bit was really slow, nailed a good one right off at 7 am, then I spent 4 hours paddling around getting a few nibbles, threw back a few little trout. 'Bout 11 it picked up. WAY up. I had fish on as soon as I got the hook in the water. Of course that signaled everyone on the lake to come over and start crowding me. I still bested everyone I saw though! Rounded out the morning with a total of 12 fun trout, and one something-or-another. Never saw it. He grabbed my hook, wiggled a bit, then stripped off about 20 yds of line like it was nothing, before he spit the hook.
