searun fever

It's been so Dang cold lately, and with spring just two days away, I've got trout fever, shoreline style.
 Last year, the searuns came in on March 18th... give or take a few days of fishing. Although I can't make it out today, I have been trying and trying. Seems like the stream is abandoned. I remember that from last year, then a few nice days, and its like someone shook the fish out of the sea, and bam! Magic.   I'll continue to get skunked, time and time again, because I know, soon enough, they will come.   Not much beats a fresh 2 pound searun.

  1. Just curious, as I would like to start chasing sea runs, what stream are you fishing? Here is my email in case you don't want to publicly announce your secret hole ( I sure as hell wouldn't) brwntroutangler@gmail.com

  5. The runs I fish come later than yours do. I figure everything is going to be delayed by a good two weeks or so. However, like you, I don't want to be "late to the party," so I'll probably get out there early just in case. It's definitely worth the skunkings.

    Good luck!
