January 1st, 2018

First day of the season and we knew it was going to be cold. When it’s this cold you become acutely aware of a few things. 1. Which creeks and the locations on those creeks that are heavily spring fed. Areas froze solid that would normally be wide open and …

Feb. 16th, 2014 Winter Brookies

What could make trout fishing in SE Minnesota on a beautiful sunny day in the middle of February in low wind better? Catching nothing but brookies and enjoying every minute, that’s what. On the nicest day of the winter season Carl and I decided that the typical locations would likely …

January 1st, 2013

Started the day as I have the last four years, coffee (gotta be black and strong), gear prep, and watch the airtemp climb from zero to three above. Met up with my usual partner in crime and set off for the destination, no discussion, the spot to do what needed …

I felt my motivation slipping …
