Getting antsy ...

This is a scene that we're all getting anxious to see. ICE! Here it is Thanksgiving, and no ice yet. Come on colder weather! The "we" of course is Kris, Jon, & I. The girls don't care much for the cold. But that's only because they don't go out and enjoy it like we do.


Bonus at the Berry

Paul, Jon, and I took advantage of a warm autumn to go to Strawberry in November. This is generally not something one can do, as the cold weather is frequently making an ice sheet of the big lake. But the fishing was hot, and we took some good video of the action.
Many beautiful cutthroat trout came to the net, most fooled with white tube jigs while we wind drifted a rocky edge.
It's easy to see why they call them "cutthroat" trout.
The average size of these trout was 20+ inches, and many were pushing 3 pounds.
You can tell we were bundled up against the cool wind, but that was easy to forget about once the line started to tug back. Several doubles highlighted the fast action.
