    Default Crowley Opener

    Overall, this was the slowest it's been on Crowley in a while for us. We talked to some of our other folks we see each year and it sounded like it was pretty slow across the board. As we are getting older, we're getting lazier and didn't get out until about 8am. We went to all of the usual spots around McGee, Sandy Point and Green Banks and each one seemed to be slow to steady pickings.

    We did okay, but caught less than limits. We're usually off of the lake by the early noon, but this time, we stuck it out all day. We were rewarded at the end of the day with 3 browns in a row. The first went almost 4lbs, the second was bout 3 1/2 and the last one was almost 3 lbs. We caught them all in a row after 5 pm.

    Hopefully the trout will be waking up in time for the Memorial Weekend.

    Beautiful browns. I've heard that the fishing is a bit slow at Crowley, but, the fish that are caught are larger models. Thanks.
