Lonesome Waters

    I was thinking that since the page views on here are almost to 1000 views, that I'd toss out a short update to let you know what I've been up to lately........Nothing much.

    Well, ok I have actually been doing some stuff - fishing, kayaking, mushroom picking, but I have not had any exciting things to tell about. I have not found a huge pile of mushrooms and I have not caught any fish recently, but I have been out on some pretty lakes, in my kayak, in pursuit of fish.

  I just bought an 11' Perception America kayak, which was something I've wanted ever since my first time in a kayak. This thing is pretty nice for the price. I got it on sale along with the paddle and PFD. I do a lot of fishing by myself so I figured this would be a good investment, easy in and out of and allows me the freedom of getting out on the lakes when I have free time.

The kayak holds all of my gear without any trouble

Sometimes I prefer solitary confinement

    Yesterday was one of those times. I ended up being alone for the day and decided that with all my gear already loaded and ready to go I would try out a small lake that is known for trout, bass, and bluegill. I spent a good six hours tossing worms and throwing flies, but even though there were some fish rising they didn't want what I offered. I didn't catch a single fish but I enjoyed the warm air and partial sun while cruising in my kayak. All in all it was a good day.
