it was chilly today but went to check out the creek anyways. didn’t have much luck tho, just a couple nibbles. used a simple worm rig and my light tackle. will try again when it gets a bit warmer, maybe in a few days!

fished the creek past week, got lucky with some patchy rain. ended up landing a beaut of a trout, 4 lbs! used a jig with a shad color, they were hitting it hard. even with the drizzle, it was awesome being out there. can’t wait to go again!

went back to esopus yesterday, it was partly cloudy, caught a few bluegill and a nice perch. used my ultra-light setup, had a ton of fun! weather was nice, just cool enough for a jacket. great day on the water, can’t wait to go back next week!

was at esopus creek again, super overcast day but still hopeful. caught a nice 3lb brown trout on a crankbait. water was a bit murky but it didn’t stop the fish from biting. went out with my buddy, he got skunked tho haha! still a blast.
