First outing and fish of the year.

Not big. but welcomed.

Its been a relatively cold start to the spring. I gave it a try tonight to check things out on my home lake.
The water.................is not warm.
The surface temp varied between 48-51. Warm enough for me to at least get an hour of fishing in before I headed back.

I tried a floating line at various points, hoping for maybe a lake trout, but in the end, the only fish I took was on a full sink, moved very slowly. I'm one of those dull day, dull fly. Bright Day, bright fly people. The fish was caught on a smaller sized Mickey Finn. Mickey Finn's always seem to be good to me in the early season.
