Fish Strawberry yesterday.   We had grandkids and they love messing with em so we set out some traps while we fished.  All the dads we caught were real nice sized ones.  Every one we caught were keepers. I realize there has been time for the babies to grow up but still expected some small ones. 
The tails are in the pot right now.

Cool, any pics of those boiled up dads? How was the trout fishing, any slot busters?

Most often I don't carry anything to take pictures.  If I did I would not know how to get them off of it and into the computer.
Catching was rather slow for me.  Each trip I seem to be doing worse.  The fish have moved or something has changed and I have been unable to figure it out.  No slot busters nor rainbows.  I have been catching more bows jigging than in previous years but not this trip. Last two trips I have caught 3 lbs bows.
