Title: Lake fairlee 2/18
Post by: finnie on Feb 21, 2017, 11:21 AM
My wife and I made it up for the weekend.  Almost didn't, lost all oil pressure in my truck a half mile from my home.  Had to make some calls and borrow my brother in laws trucks.  We fished out in front of our camp.  Weather was amazing, we were in t shirts for a while.  Managed about 15-20 fish on tip ups.  Mostly pickerel with a couple bass and a perch or two.  The highlight of the day was a nice brown trout my wife caught in about 6 feet of water.  She walked out after I had been out for two hours and got the flag a minute later.  Talk about luck.
