Lyne Creek Pond

Had a decent afternoon yesterday with my girl getting some action on the spinning rods. Got a little pounder stocked trout from Reservoir Lake on a classic worm and bobber setup (2nd photo), but with no other action for a couple hours we decided to head for greener pastures. We found ourselves casting at Lynes Creek Pond for some wild trout about a half an hour later. I switched to a spinner tipped with a worm and got a really nice fish within about 20 minutes. It was probably the biggest fish I’ve gotten out of this pond and looked very healthy. Gave me some good sport as well, going airborne a couple times before I got him in. Fun day going back to the basics, only could’ve been better if the ole lady could’ve gotten one.

Some pretty native ‘bows from Lyne Creek Pond. Caught 7, and throat pumped my first catch (On a Pink Wooly Bugger) to find tiny brown chironomids. When I tied one on though I got no action, funny enough. I switched back to a streamer, a Beadhead rolled muddler, and caught 6 more. Was a beautiful first day of the season out on the kayak. It’s good to be back home.

(Weight & length are estimates) Another native Lyne Creek Rainbow. Beautiful par marks on this guy.
