I built the stitch and glue pirogue 20 years ago for the marshes of Wisconsin, I only use it for rail these days. It is in the rafters of the barn and I noticed that the Phoebes had taken an interest in it. We were headed out of town last weekend and I noticed the nest, I left the barn doors cracked hoping that they wouldn?t abandon their nest, but worried that I had compromised their nesting

We were headed to upstate NY back to the lake where I learned to fish and shot my first ducks. We were there for the post spawn perch bite and wow did it ever work out. I haven?t ever seen yellows in as abundance and of such a nice size as we had for the several days we were there. There were as many fish as really you could want and of great size, if not too many big ones (is that possible?).
Gus and Jen with some nice yellows.
Me with a typical nice one.
Me with probably my personal best.
Beautiful piles of yellows.
I spent a lot of time cutting fish every day.
Gus (and I) had a great time sight fishing yellows with a bead head nymph on the tenkara.
As an addition for those gardeners, our first salad of the season, with some deep fried AK salmon from last summer.
