Spring!

We had a winter that was out of the ordinary this year. Good news is that fishing was incredible in the first two and a half months of the year. Bad news is that the snow is almost gone and the water levels are ridiculously low, I haven't seen them that low in May or June in other years. So unless we gonna get a lot of rain during the spring (which doesn't look like that yet), the salmon and trout seasons will be extremely short and we'll probably witness high mortality of the fish in the rivers over summer.

The last 2 weeks were really dynamic, with temperatures way bellow freezing, a snow storm, but also tanning temperatures today. The fish were present and ready to fight:















The salmon started to show up also, although we have to wait another 2 weeks until their season starts.
