Happy new years from Coyote

Met up with yellowboat late this morning. Got there @ 1030 (1/2 hour late) after staying up till 4 AM last night celebrating New Years. So if I fumble doing this report you know why. 

Found that the weather gods were smiling ear to ear for the New Year as they gave us a picture perfect day.

The water however was cold and the visibility poor. I estimated it to be at 48* F and my toes felt it immediately. brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! And wouldn't you know it, the fishing was rightfully slow. It took me 4 hours to find my first bite but it sure paid off handsomely.

And then nothing for another long stretch. Just as I was going to give up the fish gods smiled at me again.

Slow as it was it turned out pretty good for me. Unfortunately, I could not put Yellowboat on fish, again...  May be next time Doug. I'll see if I could dig up something for you from my bag of tricks.

Cool report and pics.  Did you fuzz your face out intentionally?  Stalker concerns?...

Yes, that's an oldie alright. I am surpriced that someone could recognize it here! It is at least 20 years old and it has some major mojo built up! It was also customized in the butt section.
