I had all my under garments in a wegmans bag upstairs in the house for the morning. Woke up and it was raining so chose to sleep in. Through the bag in the garage. Wife thinks its a bathroom garbage and chucks it. Don’t find it and realize it was probably in the tote until after garbage day.
Bummer. Seemed nice outside and I like after the rain stops.
last night was slow too. Only bumped a spike walking in, then nothing. Drive home and they were all over the road.
Looks like they are going to open up the pipes on the Long Pond channel bridge project Tuesday 11th. The pond is almost 2’ higher at 246 and the lake at 244. Wish I didn’t have to work as it could be pretty interesting.
Lots of pictures the last two nights with bucks fighting all night.
Think they are trying to get broken before the season starts and they are smiling on camera.

Seams like louder the boat the faster they go through.
Yesterday One came to a quick stop. They got out of the boat and pushed it back in, to idle to the dock.
saw a large cruiser get through slow.
heard few in the dark rip through.
Pretty breezy and only could get out near 120 before it was a little too sporty.
fished 60 to 120fow and had cold water in 60fow on the way out but nothing on the way in.
Ended 6 for 8 with 2 browns and one mature king.
King came on a minion flasher and meat rig. Skippers tied up a few spoon lines but all looked ready to go for a swim and we checked rods a lot. even the bigger king revived and swam away good. flasher fly got nothing.
brown trout looked normal, no nuclear. Hope it tastes as good.
fleas were not bad at all. Flies were so so.
Supper fun trip!
We have had good luck with CVA optima V2. Sportsman guide double discount shipped to your door if you are looking for a low budget option. Also there is a whole bunch of added supplies needed so figure that in too.
Got out with my 8yr old son until he wasn’t feeling it. Got to shore and he launched. Bummer he really wanted to go.
Headed back out and made it out to 200. Low marks. Cold water shallow around 50 down. Headed in and fished 50fow. Ended two skippers and two smaller browns. Kept one, meat looks amazing can’t wait.
good to get out and be back safe.
