Seasons end pt. 4

Surrounded in a cocoon of down I roll over to look at my watch, it’s 8:30 am. 12hrs? How did I sleep for 12 hours? I needed to pack camp and get to higher ground to confirm plans with Carl. I boiled water for oatmeal as I packed my hammock …

Seasons end pt. 1

Rather than concentrate on generating blog posts, I focused on what really mattered over the past two weeks. Catching trout and enjoying the last weeks, days and hours of my 2018 Minnesota trout season. It’s been a bit of a battle between the rain that seemed like it might never …

Goldilocks: 6/21/17

Goldilocks: 6/21/17

By Wednesday June 20th southeast Minnesota had received a significant amount of rain and going into Thursday it was predicted to continue raining on and off overnight. I figured if I could find cleaner water in the rain then I would find eager trout willing to crush streamers. I had …

5/25/18: Summer is Here

Summer is here as evidence by the thigh high burning nettles, the heat and the jungle growing fast around us. Ryan and I met up to fish a spot I’m well acquainted with. This place is hard to hike this time of year and certain sections almost demand wading the …

5/14/18: In The Rain

I fished from ~11:30am-3pm yesterday and lucked into two factors that made the day. I arrived at my given location to find a seriously large heard of cattle crowding one bank. I spied the water and noted it was stained but with only that medium stain where you could still …

4/26/18: Spring Streamers

4/26/18: Spring Streamers

I went back to some dirty streamer water yesterday. Dirty as in nasty, as in nasty big fish live here not dirty as in stained or nasty as in unclean. This kind of water holds much fewer trout and it’s big, wide water, mostly sand and muck bottom with the …

Thoughts on Driftless Streamer Fishing

I should start by prefacing this with a disclaimer, I am not an expert and I’m not claiming to know it all. I taught myself then compared notes and information with other like-minded anglers who fish similar water in this area. I tend to fish streamers more often than not, …

4/12/18: Expectations

The plan was to meet up with Carl and cast dry flies hoping to find eager brook trout mouths. I worked the night before 5pm-5am and after getting home, getting my daughter to daycare I took a very brief nap. I woke to a text message at 9:15am instead of …

4/7 & 4/8/18: Winter In April

Those of you who read this are well aware that we’ve been experiencing colder than normal days this April. It’s easy to get discouraged when the sky is grey, the ground is a combination of muddy brown and patchy white, the bluffs are now totally snow covered and the creeks …

4/3/18: In the Snow

Back to swinging streamers as the snow came falling down yesterday. It’s easy to be frustrated with a snowstorm in the first week of April especially after we managed to avoid any major run-off problems over the past few weeks. I strung my rod as big wet flakes fell rapidly …
