I've been pretty much house bound caring for Wifey after foot surgery - but she's doing better so I headed to Camanche with my fishing buddy, John.

We didn't even take the downriggers, figuring the fish would be near the surface, and maybe we were right about that, but I wonder how we'd have done at 20 or 30 feet...

I managed one little 1½ pounder on a frog pattern after several LDRs. John caught two one pounders later. We found most of the action around Hat Island. With our slow day, we had to come up with some kind of excuse, I figured, so we've decided to blame the full moon and clear nights for the slow fishing.

The little trout was the first fish aboard my new North River. I had hoped to make the cherry-popping event take place on the maiden voyage a month ago while sturgeon fishing - a sturgeon would have been super as the first - but I'm not complaining. Maybe just a little...
