Sunday Fishing
Went out today to check out some different locales, see what I could find.
Started off at the Fort Saskatchewan pond, had a hit on one of the first casts with a spinner, but no luck. No other bites after that. The wind was pretty tricky there today, so it kept the fly line from getting wet. I'm sure someone with more skill than myself could have made it work, my skills are admittedly quite lacking.
After a few hours there, decided to go for a spin down to Beaumont pond, it was quite busy. I hung around for about 10 minutes, didn't see anyone having any luck. Those two things combined let me to decide not to try it out today.
Finally went down to the NSR near the bridge in Devon. Pretty busy with people there for a whole variety of reasons (suntanning, dog walking, hiking, raft building?, and of course fishing). Spent some time looking around and trying a few different spots, no luck, saw a couple fish jumping, whitefish I believe.
No matter the outcome it was still a great day of adventuring around my new stomping grounds, and any day fishing is better than a day working...
