Catch of the day [Fishing]
-
We have one of my fishing mates over from France for the weekend. Popped down to one of my local haunts this AM, Using soft plastics for Bass. A few years ago, I would never have dreamt of using lures for Bass later than October, but my mates and I have learnt a lot recently, so it was a nice mild morning, no wind and a rising tide, so we felt it was worth a cast or 2. It worked.....

Went fishing in mountain streams and ponds in Thurmont, Maryland. I didn't catch any but Amanda my wife and Uncle Bill each caught a rainbow. My job was to clean and prep them for dinner. Good deal.
Saw three golden (marker) trout up there this morning too. Two visible next to one another in a stream and a guy next to us at a pond reeled one in to show us.

I saw a few growing up in nearby streams.
