Finally something to write about!!!!

The rain has let up and the fish are getting bigger. I went to Cottonwood Lake the past two days and limited out on one to one and a half pound trout. These look like real fish, fat bellies and fins. They even fight and take out drag. They must have been going to the east bay.The fish hit anything moving. so lure type was not an issue. As the trout got more wary the type of lure and presentation was critical. I went to a small trout worm and a plastic water bubble. Cast out and slowly drag it back. Green power worms and those fantastic egg sucking leeches from Fish pill. were the best bite getters. If you do not have worms you can always throw out power bait and drag it in slowly. Just move the bait. If you are lazy you can take a small chair ,sit down and cast. If you do not want to catch any fish then just throw out your bait and wait you might catch something.

These fish are going to go into the garden the help grow my tomatoes . They make great fertilizer and the trout are not put back into the lake for the birds to eat.
