Report #3
π€ Jakewent on the 16th, gloomy and cold all day. only caught a couple of small ones. tried using a couple different lures but nothing seemed to work. river was high and fast, not ideal conditions, but still nice to be by the water.

π€ LisaMay 14th was a washout, literally! the rain didnβt stop but I still went out early. didnβt catch much, just one little guy that escaped before I could weigh it. wind was a bit wild too, but hey, at least I got to fish!
Report #5
π€ RogerMan, today was something else! May 12, pouring rain and cold, but I went anyway. hooked into 3 decent trout, all around 2lbs. I was soaked but it was totally worth it. used my trusty fly rod - they were hitting it like crazy despite the weather.
