No Dice

The temp breaks 75 degrees. Good day to be on the water.

Still thinking about a big bass. My spring lunker was hanging out right down there among last year's reeds.


Everyone is enjoying the fine weather. Lots of hikers on the trails and a few other fishermen.


Oh, and the frisky breeze is there, too.


The only ones not around are the fish.


I can just manage to catch a log.


It calms. I wait at the head of the dam for dusk to come.


Then I work it thoroughly with a plastic worm.


No dice. I watch the bats tracing loops and right angles in the sky.


I finally accept the fact that I'm skunked again and kick in.

Drink It Deep

Two more recent trips to Yellowwood. Trying to take advantage of the golden days before the cold winds blow. Fish are perhaps few and far between, but all the more appreciated for that. And there's ample Autumn calm and beauty. This is the time to drink it deep.
