went out on May 27th, and oh boy, thunder in the distance but the fishing was great. caught a few smallies, about 2-3 lbs each. used a popper which they seemed to love! had to dodge a bit of wind but overall a solid adventure.

May 20th got pretty wet, i mean heavy rain all day! still fished though, and pulled in 3 small rainbows. gear was soaked, but I had my waterproof jacket, so I’m thankful for that. fish were hiding in the deeper spots. gotta love the challenge!
