What a great month November was. A very fishy month. Good numbers of Gerrard Rainbow Trout 11 - 14 lbs. The usual gear has been working well on top, although I took a couple of rainbows at 77 ft.

The last week it seemed like most of the big fish were 7 or 8 lbs, and I was starting to wonder what was going on. The weather was very unstable, but there would be little breaks in the weather, sometimes only for an hour, and we'd pick up some nice fish. Fishing for Gerrard Rainbows is a patience game, and just when you think there is no hope left, the bite turns on, and you can't keep them off the hooks.

Monday was a great way to end a long streak of fishing. There was 5 of us. I put out 3 rods, and still had 2 to go, when the first one started to pull line, and steadily gain speed. Tim jumps up, and wrestles in a double digit Gerrard. Well that takes a bit of the presure off. Now lets get some more!!! And we did. The weather was angry, and the fish were hungry. Went on to land 16 trout that day.

I have a few days off, but back out again on Fri. for quite a stretch. Hope you can join me soon.
