Rainy Monday

[Manning]

Well the unreliable weather forecast got me again. The forecast said it was not supposed to rain until noon, but about 10 am this morning when I was a good mile from the launch down it came. This was also my fault since the sky looked something like this shortly after launching.


Luckily I started catching fish before I had gone to far. Since the action was pretty steady I didn't make the long run to other areas. A wise man once told me that you don't leave fish to find fish. By the time the rain started I had caught 21 trout and 6 lady fish so I had had my fun. The trout were all on the small size. Maybe 8 or 10 would have made it to the lower end of the slot. Here is a picture of one pretty little trout. I am posting this picture because I know some of you went fishing yesterday and didn't get to see any of these.

Sounds like a pretty good day Manning, glad you got out.

Yea - good day anyway. Whereabouts?

Buttonwood. Was back up there yesterday in a flats boat and it was much, much slower. Like all places so much depends on water temp amd water movement.
