Fishing report

After a couple of days of rain and cool temperatures the fishing is slow. The fish made me really work for a some bites and a few crappy and blue gill.

The water is still pretty cold for this time of year but it was nice to be out in the sunshine under deep blue skies. I managed to find a spot of water that wasn't covered by cotton from cottonwood trees; I hate picking that stuff off of my line and out of my reel.

On the walk to the fishing hole a turkey and I scared each other; I was looking through binoculars at an egret and almost tripped on the turkey.

The ticks are pretty vicious but the mosquitoes aren't bad yet.The turtles got most of my bait today though but it was a great day to be alive.
