Air temps are leveling out here in the Adirondacks, and a lot of water is coming back into play. I got out for trout twice this week: once on a small stream (it sucked, but I got a 3 inch fingerling and long-distance released a bigger but still small fish) and one morning on the Battenkill (which completely sucked as usual despite some tricos and caddis around throughout the morning).
The most fun I had with a fly rod this week was taking the kids to the neighborhood pond today.
Little man getting his loops in shape.
My 10 yr old got 5 panfish unassisted sight fishing a squirming, my 8 yr old got 3 on top on a hopper, and I even managed to pop a couple little largemouth twitching hoppers in between when the kids were fishing.
Feels like things are getting better - or at least the temps are down enough that I'm willing to go find out. Bodes well...
