Rvr 12/9

My buddy and I hit up the big bowl on friday for some 'save-some-money' fishing and tried to catch some lakers. Caught a very few in our spots and we noticed they're starting to come off the bottom more and not stay glued to the bottom.

Hit up some shoreline and I caught myself my first brown trout. Thought I was just pulling out of some weeds when I felt the weight. He did a bunch of jumps on the surface and was probably the best fighting fish of the day. Put up a nice fight for his small size. Caught one more laker a little bigger after him and that was it for the day. Not bad, but not stripers. All fish were caught jigging with a Binski!

Rvr 12/10,.......wading the shore: caught a short brown, 16" brown, & another bigger one that jumped & threw the hook.

No lakers, yet,....but expecting them. Now's when I catch them from shore,...when first hooked, the smaller ones really jump!

Get a couple of knucklehead poppers at Dows and wait for the noise to start. That was the advice from Bunker Dunker and thats all you need! Thanks BD!

Nice day on the water regardless.

It was a nice day until the normal midday winds kicked up coming across the water.
