I have no complaints about the weather and I suppose I should say something about it not mattering if I catch a fish or not, but for me it's more of a tradition. I'm still learning, having been a trout fishermen for only seven years.

This is my crawfish pattern, named for my cat (Jack) that was watching me when I tied the crawfish. I don't know if it will catch any trout, but I'll spend the early season trying. I'll just drag it along the bottom. You'll have to put a lure in front of a trout's nose today.
