durkin09 Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 F.Z. and I decided to spend Christmas morning drifting for trout. Got there about 7 and it was slow for the first 2 hours, then the bite started. Went 7 for 7 with the browns, most were smaller but managed a few nice ones. Last one is 25 3/4" by 14 3/4', beauty colours. Great way to spend Christmas morning, doing what you love! Merry Christmas all. Cheers, Durk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest canadadude Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Great job! Would have been a beautiful day to be out, no doubt. I thought the yellow Browns were done....as my last few fish were silver and fresh from the lake. I think alot these brownies have finished there spawning rituals and they are returning to there more normal appearences and starting to feed more!! I've noticed on a few I caught lately the males are losing there kype heads and vivid spawning coloures and reverting back to the silver colours!! It's pretty amazing to see how much these fish change when they come into spawn and how fast they change back when there done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Andrews Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Nice pics. Water looks calm. I also enjoyed the peace on Christmas morning but only with a walk. However the lack of usual traffic and noise was settling for the mind. Would have loved to have been on the harbour with you. Looks like a great self gift indeed.

F.Z. Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Hey Sprint, You're right ! I was at one time blessed with a full head of dark hair. Now I'm blessed with a great family, including my son here, who has a passion for fishin just like me ! F.Z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
