Buzzard in the morning & Big Green in the afternoon

      I made it back up to Buzz and the lake was like glass but that didn’t last long. Gary showed up about 10 minutes later. I finished rigging up as the wind came in just before I pushed off from shore.
Like I stated in the earlier post there is still traces of snow around the lake the water temp is in the low 50 bouncing from 52-3 down to 50-1 my fish finder showed that I was in 18ft of water and I marked 3 fish at 9 ft. and some smaller ones on the bottom.
     Gary was in the water less than 15 minutes after me so at the latest it was 10 AM. I worked my way around the lake and didn’t touch a fish trying just about everything I could think of. With pounding the shore line with Prince Nymphs, Gray Scuds, leaches, and not ever seeing any more sign of fish. At just about quarter to twelve I got a tug but it didn’t last long and it wasn’t very much.
     Gary and I meet back up and he was having the same kind of luck as I.

     I suggested that we go hit Big Green for a while just to see how the fresh plants were doing. So we headed out and got to Big Green by 1:15 and into the water by 1:30. I wasn’t but maybe 20 feet from shore and Bam fish on it wasn’t big at 13 inches but it was action. I still had my mini leach on and when Gary got into the water he still had on his Zug Bug and in no time he too was into fish.
       After catching my forth fish I hooked something on the bottom and broke off.  So Not knowing what Gary had on (yea right) I found one of the Zug Bugs that he had tyed up for me and put that on. 

For a while there it was a fish with every cast, the fish aren’t that big but fighters and very air born.                                                  By 4 both of us needed to pack it in.
So with all that being said: Buzzard needs to warm up so I’ll give it a few more weeks, and talk to Ryan.

As for Big Green it was fun the water temp was 61 the fly of the day was either a mini leach or a Zug Bug it was a bit overcast a little windy but caught lots of fishies. Almost stupid funnnnnn.    My biggest was may be 14 smallest was maybe 8-9.
