May 16th Fishing =

I took a late afternoon fishing trip.. I believe I did more driving than fishing. I headed to the Clarion River at Belltown first.. MISTAKE..
The Clarion looks like the pictures on TV of the Mississippi... high and MUDDY...

I thought about Clear Creek State Park 5 miles away and the lake there... I walked and fished 1/2 way around it and NOTHING... did have one small trout follow the bait to shore but would not bite..

So back (over) to North Fork .. I took my first trip to Humpback Bridge rather than Jones or Richardsville .. Creek was high but not muddy. Good decision.. I landed 4 Brook Trout and lost 2...

Here's one of today's fish... FYI.. for those that claim using nightcrawlers is bad because of "deep hook sets" if you look carefully you can see the hook is no where near the belly..

You just have to pay attention and not let the fish swallow the hook...
