A Fishless Day
It rained on Sunday but there was no way of telling if my favorite streams 100 miles north saw any of it. Monday I woke at four in the morning and rather than try to go back to sleep I decided to drive up there and take a chance fishing. We’ve had a bit of a drought so I hoped the streams were up a little and carrying a little stain.. but no such luck. I fished the Pine River (Lake County) for about an hour and didn’t see a fish. The Pine was as low as I have ever seen it. I drove south to the Little South (branch of the Pere Marquette) and took a look. It too was very low, maybe the lowest water level I’ve seen on that stream. So a lot of driving, no fish, but did discover my waders leak. Not the best news to cap off a fishless day:)
