Ah, what to do when the weather is wonky.

I needed to be home around noon today.  Should I AM or PM?  Chose the AM, and came to regret this choice.  Fishing is best in the evening this time of year.

Water was high which provided an opportunity to explore via canoe.  I would paddle down to a starting point, then wade up pulling the canoe.  This isn't really difficult.

The watershed is about 20 square miles at the starting point.  I was expecting around 75 cfs, but it was more like 110. The water clearly in the 30s.

The topo app for some reason didn't provide me with a distance travelled #, and being I didn't have an accurate #, I did not go as far down in the canoe as I could have or should've, but due to excessive wader leakage, I was glad I didn't.  Top notch habitat throughout. I will be back hopefully before March when hatchery waters close.

Two hours of cold legs was enough.

All of the fish were caught in the last 20 minutes.  3 in hand, and lost two.

I scurried up this trib and spent about 15 minutes fishing.  It was challenging with all the witchhazel.
