Good Weekend

[phishtix]

Went fishing in the manistee area this past weekend with my friend. Turned out to be a really good time.

Saturday was wet but we stuck it out all day and caught quite a few fish. Sunday was much nicer but the fishing turned off in the early afternoon as it began to get too warm.

Kinda cool, sunday morning as the sun came up a rainbow formed in the fog and seemed to end right on the spot we were fishing. We thought that must be a good sign. Then a bald eagle flew over and we knew it was going to be a good morning

We definitely caught a lot of fish. Don't ask me how many cause I honestly didn't keep track. But it was a lot. Some were fresh and others were colored up pretty good. Mostly it was the males that were turning. The hens seemed a bit brighter.

All fish were caught on skien or skien tied in bags.

Hope everyone else had a good weekend too!

Most guys don't take the time to take photos while river fishing.
