Opening Day of Trout Season


Well, it took us a while to get to Grayling Friday due to getting two flat tires on the camper.
Today the weather began with temps in the upper 20's, which was cold enough to form ice on the eyelets. Throughout the day the temps warmed up to the upper 50's. With the overcast skies, it was a good day for fishing. We fished using minnows and worms - the worms were better in the afternoon. We caught a lot of 8" to 10" fish which should make for good fishing next year. The largest fish we caught today was 14" (all were brown trout).
We had a trout dinner tonight which was fantastic, and we have enough fish for dinner the next two nights also!
There are not very many people on the river and we are the only occupants at the campground!
