Whew!!! This has been such an early spring that it is basically over. The main action on the Brule was from opening day until mid-April. The North Shore run was early to mid April. I had some conflicts early in the month so my trips the last few weeks have been spent searching for a few late fish or drop backs.
With enough searching one could find a fish or two here or there but on top of the fish being scarce, one had to compete with other anglers. And again because of the conditions, they were on the move hoping from one spot to the next competing with one another.
This reminds me of why history and perseverance are so important to fly fishing. Some seasons are going to be better than the others, but with time spent on the water there are days and seasons that make it all worth while. Besides if it were easy, it would not be as fun.
So, on to the spring trout season and matching the hatch. Then late summer smallmouth bass and musky. Then.......Fishtober on the Brule.
