Winter Fishing
This Saturday was the winter trout (catch and release) fly-fishing
opener. A small group of us showed up at Chris's house with our
gear, hoping for the best.
Joe and Ben reported that the river was running high and dark.
Below the dam in River Falls there was seven inches of foam on
the water's surface.
After some discussion, we decided to take a look at the rivers
east of town rather than climb down the icy trail to the lower
Kinnickinic. We drove about 5 miles to the Rush, then headed
further on to the Eau Galle.
Parking below the Spring Valley impoundment, we walked
along the Eau Galle river. My catch of the morning turned out
to be this brief moment on the trail.
