Last few trips/update

[baetis]

I went on my annual night pilgrimage with Mike last night.

Started off with two eyes right after sunset, one dink, one keeper sized. Thought the bite was going to be great, but it was the dead sea for the next 3 hours. We kept hopping around and changing up, but no luck despite the effort by the capt.

Finally, at the last spot with time running out, the herring started to surface. For the next hour and a half it was game on. A nice steady mix of hybrids and eyes. Nothing beats that sound of fish slamming your lure on the surface, feeling the line go taught and your drag peeling off in the dark.

A BIG THANKS to Mike for putting in extra time and for heading out when he could/should have cancelled the trip. I think most other guides would have rescheduled, but he wanted to get me out on the water after a few weather cancellations.
