Got to the lake at 6 am. It was freezing out. So cold that i couldn't move my fingers to tie a knot Laughing
I have been looking forward to this trip all week since I've been so busy with work and school. Normally I have all of my gear and tackle packed and ready the night before. This was not the case this time around. Get to my spot and realized that I forgot some essentials in my truck: Net, stringer, and a few other little things...
Tried a few different spots without any luck. Saw a few guys catching but it seemed pretty slow. I make one final move to the dike (never fished this side of the lake before) and was rewarded with a decent sized trout. In my rush to the lake I forgot my net in my truck....fortunately a man walking by just as I hooked up went down on the rocks and netted my fish for me. What an awesome dude. I hope he got his limits today.

Nice one boss! Even those fins look nice and crisp.
It looks like I need to pull out and tune up the trout gear. Something about trout fishing that brings me back, love it.
That does look healthy. Congrats!
Thanks guys. It was fun to pull on something with the ultra light gear. I love fishing for the bigger stuff with heavy line....but it's so much more nerve wrecking when you fish with 2-4 # line.
Here's another shot of the same fish:
