The Final Countdown

In about two weeks it's opening season in PA, and then it's fish on! 


So today it was our first day in the 70's, so I decided to take the rug rat to the park and air her out a bit. We get to the park and it appears that the park department decided that the nicest day to date would also be a great time to close off the playground and do repairs. Idiots....


But the reason I like this park of the others is that there is a nice little trout stream that wanders through it. Kids get to play, I get to fish. 'Nuff said.

So we walked along the banks and I checked the pools. There, right in the middle was about 2 dozen trout. I'm bad at guessing length in the water, so I'll say that they were all in the 42 inch range. Give or take a few.

This pool gets hit pretty hard during season, but I know of another one that no one goes to. He he he....

I checked that one and, while not as populous, showed signs of some very good contenders.

Now... it's the Final Countdown!
