Word around the region is that it's early. The ice has just or is just coming off and while there may be a few bugs and a few areas where fish are active, there isn't consistent action. The +25C heat is double the normal values and we're sure that everyone, like us, is chomping at the bit. We've been fortunate to be on the water pretty much every day recently. There have been good days and so-so days, depending on your definition of things. Right now we're still focused on sight fishing, per my article in this year's Alberta Fishing Guide Magazine - browns in small, clear waters. It has worked, though things aren't rolling quite yet. That has as much to do with exploring more Google Earth waters as it has been hitting the wrong water at the right time or the right water at the wrong time. Fish have been seen, caught, and filming completed, and we've had fun - and that's great. A few shots of the past few days:
