Winter BLISS or Total Confusion

Between Duck Hunting (a 30 year tradition) with my 2 new labs “Pesto” & “Pasta”  and Steelhead Fishing (I’m a newbie) this winter has been filled with outdoor fun.  When it rains you can rest assured I’m smiling and in a state of total confusion.  Should I grab the rod or the shotgun… oh boy!

A limit of ducks with “Pesto” and “Shasta”.  Pesto is on the left.  Uncle Joe & Dad on a day where the wind blew 55 mph for 3 hours.  3 boats were lost in LK Refuge that day.

Steelhead on The Trinity

A couple of my fishing buddies are having a good season on the Trinty.

Trinity Steelhead

Had a fun outing yesterday with my Dad on the Trinity.

Landed 1 wild fish on a red copper john #14.

Also had another grab on the Red Copper John and ended up with 1 fish scale.

Best part of the day was the accumulation of “thigamabobbers” that ended up in a back eddy.  I ended up with 5

new “ma bobbers”
