It got chilly after 1am. As were headed in there was a good fog bank forming. 46* when we trailered up. Really damp too.

Nice!! I really like the feather in it. It not only looks good but looks like it catches good too!
Not a fish, well baby perch only, last weekend the dock had tons of circling brutes. This week I stopped quick to see the owner, about a dozen huge trout belly up. Water temp, 80 degrees… heard Mauch Chunk lake was 84, can’t imagine much in the creek below survived either. Bummer……

I guess what I don't understand is how you catch these Channel Cats. How do you keep the chicken livers on your fly when false casting?
