With some help form KK

I guess nobody is fishing..('cept for the little lake turds)


With the low water conditions we have endured for the last month and a bit I can see why. I have been fishing quite a bit with little success but still it is what it is and it is what we do.. Getting out and exploring the flow(s) have helped take the mind off the big Rotti who went in again as a last ditch effort to save his leg $$$$

This is a montage of Janurary...

You can forget about those tensions by getting out there. The woods and the rivers will do that to folks. Great post lippy. Awesome photos. Thank you.
 
Thanks for sharing the great pics - a really nice part of the world. I hope all goes well with your Rotti's leg.
