I’m Ready For My Close-up

I’ve been fishing as much as possible this year, generally 4-5 times a week. I’ve been rotating between different lakes, rods, reels, lures and fish. I mostly target bass on my baitcaster but switch it up to spinning and fly-fishing on occasion for trout. I’ve done quite well so far this season, catching and photographing some beautiful little fish. I miss catching big fish, but there is really something special about these colourful little brook tout.

I’m amazed how different they look despite being the same species.

I also have been getting into some chain pickerel recently on small spinner biats. They are very similar to pike, but rarely get over 30 inches around here.
