Spring was certainly slow the last couple days for me.

I managed two little guys to the net yesterday in four hours of fishing from 10-2. One on a boatman and one on a black and green sparkle leech.

Missed the boatman activity in afternoon.

Wasn't part of the AFFLT group but know a few of them and they are pretty good fisher people.

I think they probably did much better than you may have heard.


Saturday afternoon. Boatman and backswimmers were there. A few fish rising. One damn fish to the net. Missed a few followers casting to rises.

Tried almost every boatman and backswimmer pattern I had. Floating, sinking, beadhead , chenille, peacock herl, brown tan , black tan, floating line, sink tip line, etc, etc.

Mildly frustrating.

Spring Lake has humbled but not broken me.
