Fishing After The Rain

[weedwalker]

It finally quit raining today so I thought I'd get out this afternoon and make a few cast. I started out below the dam at Laurel lake where the Laurel river runs into the Cumberland river. I caught 4 small white bass and then the muddy water from the rain started rolling in.



So I went above the dam to fish in the lake. There were trout schooling in a bay on the top of the water. You can barley see them in the center of this pic.



Within about 45 minutes I had caught 6 or 7 of these rainbow trout.



I was getting cold and ready to leave, but I just had to make that last cast. I'm glad I did. I caught this 4lb 8oz rainbow for supper.

Thanks Pitw. It wasn't as white as it looks in the picture. It's from the camera flash.

That last cast is the best cast when it produces something like that.
