The wife mentioned that both my son and I were in need of a haircut, so we went fishing instead.
We were tempted to go back up to Smith and Morehouse but decided instead to head up Hwy 150 and hit a few Tiger trout lakes.
We fished Trial and Moosehorn. Both had many very cooperative small trout in the 10" size with one 14" bow coming from Trial.
You could see lots of fish in the water, harder to entice them. Turned up their noses at PB in corn, garlic and pink sparkle trout flavor or worms.
They turned up their noses at Jakes, Super Dupers, Black Fury spinners but when I broke out old faithful, my small Buoyant in Brown trout pattern it was on.
My son, who had the inflatable and fished all over Trial caught 12. I, from the shore caught 2, both from Moosehorn where he caught another 2. All in all a good day hanging with my son and fishing.
PS. Removed the picture link. It was just a picture of the lure.
I should mention we were casting as far as we could, way out there and most strikes came very soon after hitting the water. We were keeping the lures shallow. Maybe 18" at most.
