It’s raining as I write this – a mid-February-right-after-a-good-snow-melt-spring kind of rain.  Honestly, it’s a little dreary, but it’s pretty typical for this time of year.  It’s also a good sign that spring is finally on its way, and that temps are on the rise.

Unfortunately, though, I really haven’t done much of anything outside.  Well, I spent all last weekend outdoors, but I was helping a family member clean up a property, not shed hunting or trying to locate steelhead in a deep pool.  Those two activities will be just around the corner, though, and I can’t wait for them to get here.

In the meantime, I thought we could rewind back to last September.  If you remember, Jeff was lucky enough to be invited on a chartered fishing trip, and he made the most of it by catching two fish on one rod, and landing the biggest fish of the day, a 14lb lake trout.  Well….today he went and picked up his mounted trout, and you can see that it looks pretty nice on the wall.

As the days tick by, and the temps warm, we’ll be outside more and more.  It’ll be spring before we know it, our steelhead trip is only a few weeks away, and we’ll be chasing gobblers in just a few short months……..all on video, and all in HD (more on that later).

In the meantime, gaze in wonder at Jeff’s mounted lake trout.  I’m sure he’s still staring at it as I write this.
