Got in another half an hour on the river this evening, the fish were not as active (I assume that all of the rain last night dropped the water temperature). Caught a few and even managed to get out the camera. Not an easy trick when alone in waist deep water that is oh by the way about 50 degrees. Sorry it was pretty dark and of course there is nothing for scale.
This afternoon continued the warm pattern of the last few days with the temperature at 50 degrees. I arrived home from meetings in Augusta at around 3. Not enough time to load the dogs for a hunting trip but plenty of time for a quick trip down to the Saint George for a little trout fishing. I arrived at the river at around 3:30 waders on and ready to go. I started in the usual pool but as I looked upriver into the smooth water I could see fish breaking the surface every now and then.
When I got up this morning the lawn and field across the street were covered with a light coating of snow. Overnight the temperatures had fallen and today is clear but chilly. It won’t be long now until it is time to get back on showshoes and see what tracks are in the woodlot.
