Huntington North - Nice fall day

[gofish435]

A few of us hit HN today in our tubes.  We launched at the State Park ramp around 10:00 and fished until 3:30.  We used our normal fly gear, sinking lines and size 6-8 bead head leeches and buggers and picked up a HN mixed bag of fish.  Some bluegill/green sunfish, small largemouth bass, some channel catfish, rainbows, one wiper, a handful of 15" chubs, and a crawdad.  One of the rainbows was just under 3 pounds.  The catfish went from 12" to just over 20", and the wiper weighed 5 lbs. 11 oz. and was 23" long.

The reservoir level is 45% full and rising slowly.  The water temperature was 63-65 degrees and the visibility in the water of about 5'.

There were quite a few people camped at the State Park but there weren't any boats out and only a half dozen shore fishermen while we were there.

It was a fun day on the water.
