I was getting a little bit of cabin fever, what with all the snow we've had, so I decided to get out into the woods today. There is a creek behind my lfs that I got permission to play around in, so I grabbed my field backpack and went out. Found a lot of stonefly and blackfly larvae, as well as a few mayfly larva, a water penny, some craneflies... nothing super exciting. I did catch a blacknose dace with really nice red fins, which was cool.
Also, slipped in the mud and ended up with 2 inches of mud caked on my backside for an hour.
However, it was totally worth it.
Also, I found this epic piece of driftwood, which I have no use for. But look, it's awesome!
My cat was infinitely less impressed than I was.
