Back to the Eau Claire for More

We spent more time on the Eau Claire in a different section.  This time Samuel ended up with his first Musky! We brought a backpack and had a nice shorelunch!

Multi-Species Day on the Eau Claire River

Samuel and I took a trip to the Eau Claire River, in Eau Claire County to try catch some bass. We ended up catching 33 bass total.  I caught my first Musky! Even though it was a snake it was super fun to catch! I also caught one walleye and samuel caught a northern pike! Beautiful day of fishing!

Pepin County

Adam and I got out to Pepin County to try some of the streams! We were very surprised! We each caught about 35 trout and had an amazing day on the water!

Birthday Trip!

Finally captured a picture of an owl! And it is my favorite kind, a Barred Owl.  Also saw a Coyote and some other cool stuff! Went fishing the next day and caught a lot of trout.  48 brooks and 49 browns!

New favorite stream!

Went to a new stream to try today. Never thought I would catch over 100 trout in a day but I caught 118 here.  Ranged from 6-18 inches.  Ridiculous stream, good help from trout unlimited on making awesome lunker structures and cleaning this stream up. I am wanting to help when they go back and work on a second part of this stream!

April 7th, Trempealeau River

Samuel and I went out for a day on one of our favorite streams.  We ended up catching 29 trout altogether.  Samuel caught this massive brookie and I ended up with a holdover rainbow! So excited to see a holdover in this stream! Beautiful day... We even saw a Kestrel!

Wilson Creek, March 23rd

Went Back to Wilson Creek to see what the bite would be like! Ended up with 62 brook trout and 14 browns including a nice 18 incher!

Wilson Creek, Dunn County

I had a decent day on Wilson Creek today! Caught a 21 inch female brown trout out of a slow moving hole! Very cool creek. 

Early Season Opener, 2012

Nicolai and I went to one of our favorite streams for opener. Ended up having a nice day. We each caught 5+ over 15 inches!

December 31st Cabin Trip

Trout Log

Didn't get out half as much as I would have liked.. That will change this next season. I had a blast though every time I went out.. Caught my first tiger trout and I would say had a great season!

293 Trout in Hand. That beats the 2010 season by 146 trout but falls short of my first year trout fishing in 2009 which I caught 357. So in 3 seasons I have caught 797 trout in total. I am definitely going to push that over 1000 this next season!

Golden Trout - 58 (biggest 19 inch female)
Lake Trout - 7 (biggest 23 inch male)
Brown Trout - 95 (biggest 18.5 inch male)
Brook Trout - 121 (biggest 14 inch female)
Rainbow Trout - 11 (biggest 13 inch female)
Tiger Trout - 1 (7 inch male)

11/11/11 and wishing for Trout Season.

This last summers big trip.. We are trying to figure out where to go this summer... Any suggestions?

I already miss trout fishing and its only October...

This is going to be a long winter..

Big Bass from the Cabin.
