Welcome back and thank you for clicking on the video! If you’re new here welcome and I hope you enjoy the content!

This season we have been facing some tough conditions so far with not having any rain in the forecast and very low and clear creek levels. There are some fish in the streams but with the insane pressure they are highly spooked. We started off fishing the creek at sunrise and only had a couple bites but no hook ups. The guys that were shore fishing into the lake were having success so we made our way over to check it out. A couple of my friends were drifting egg sacks through the outflow into the lake and landing several fish. Not wanting to intrude I stood to the side and patiently waited my turn. After a while they left and I stepped in. Of course the wind started to pick up and make waves on the last which make it tough to get a good drift through the current. These fish were schooled up and riding the waves into the creek mouth. Although it was tough I landed a couple fish and had a few other missed opportunities. A solid start to the season but Mother Nature needs to send rain our way! Thanks for watching and I hope you stick around for more content coming soon!
