So how did you do

So with opening day over how did you guys do? Find any water to yourselves? Mingo was pretty packed until it started to rain a little and then a lot of people left. The fishing was great though, between me and one other friend we caught almost 100 fish and I also got this big one. Biggest trout so far, crazy story behind it to, great day though.

    nice feesh man.

    i had what i would consider a great day. i hung out in my back yard and watched the natives and bows chase bugs. i thought about throwing a caddis at them, but i decided the fish look just as nice swimming around as they would if i caught them. i guess it would have been watch and release feeshing. it saves money on tackle.

    Beautiful fish man, slammed them at raccoon on opening day on the lake 17 in 2 hours. Hit the streams around 12 seemed to be fished out already. Plan on hitting Montour tomorrow or Wednesday.

    Killed it at Mayburg bridge on the Tionesta. Nobody on the sandbar near the bridge. Caught a nice hefty golden and a ton of rainbows. Upstream caught some browns and brookies too. Had a great time.

    Fished an hour and a half at Bradys Run Creek. Nailed 11 in the late late afternoon in the heavy rain. Only way I could get a spot on that creek.

    Caught fish...released...caught another...released...caught another...released...

    You see where this is going. Glad folks had some success.

    Same thing happened to me, this man and his kid were crushing them on night crawlers, I have used them before with some success but just forgot about them I guess
