Trout Run Leaves --lots of 'em. think leaf beach

I stopped down at Trout Run today before work. When I pulled up I though that maybe the Fish Comm or someone was dumping dirt to replace the beach after the storm. But it wasn't dirt. Every leaf in Lake Erie found its way to the shore by Trout Run. The pile goes out about 15-20 feet from shore and sets about 5 feet above the water.
 

 

 

 
I have no idea who that guy is. He was putting sticks in the ground every so many yards.

    I went back down today and most of the leaves are gone. Guys were wading out to fish.  The mouth is fishable. Trout Run now goes straight out into the lake.

    So you're on lunch break, fishing trout run, posting on the forums and you have caught hooked 30 fish? Seems valid...

    Billy, you're a funny guy. Just out of curiosity, how long is this lunch break?

    If I had ego issues I would have posted numbers. You my friend are the one on here posting exaggerated numbers to pad your ego. I was just trying to share a good trip and expressing my excitement for my girlfriend catching her first steelhead. Also to let everyone planning a trip know there are plenty of fish to be caught.

    You don't have a desire to impress? Or just no ability to do so?

    Yup, 1974.
     
    Due to it's seeming anti-war message, and the ERA in which it was written. Most think that it refers to the Vietnam war. Actually, "Billy" is a union soldier going off to fight in the civil war.
