Lethargic Striper

Decent day today, the fish were a little lethargic as they become in the winter time as a result of the cold water temperatures. The fish really only hit the fly on the fall during long pauses between strips. Even then a lot of them just kinda pecked at it and never really ate and held on. The fish are fat and happy going into the brunt of winter. The highlight of the day was watching a bald eagle swoop down and pick up a fish off the water. Definitely not a bad way to start the year off.

First fish of the morning.
