Medway Report 15 May 2008

Water temperature 14 C. Saw an almost white deer, a beaver, many ducks and cormorants, a great blue heron, an osprey. Shadbush is in bloom. Dark Mayflies with transparent wings. Caught & released five brook trout - from 9" to 11", and one salmon parr. The Usual #14, and RLM #8. Beautiful sunset. Blackflies a nuisance.

Good Luck and Good Fishin'!

Plenty of blackflies where I was down in Pennsylvania as well. With the cool rainy weather they hadn't started biting...at least until the last day or so we were down there when a few of the little bastards nailed me. In Southern Ontario where I live, we have some blackflies but they are no big deal. Three hours north of us it's another story altogether, and from there north, they get seriously nasty.

Yes... blackflies and all kinds of pestilence... why couldn't Pandora just keep her hands off that damn box?
