mountain brook trout and lake fishing for smallies

Hi folks, Nice day out.  Not too often that we have seen the sun this spring and summer.  Heavy fog this morning on the lake I guided with my boat.  Surface temperature was in the high sixties with a slight breeze from the south.  Not much of surface bite for the bass today.  We had to work hard for 2 landed smallmouth between 1lb and 2lbs.  Both good strong fighters and jumpers.  We found each fish located in deeper water off islands.  Right at the end of points that slowly tapered into deeper water. Did see a few large fish in shallow, but they did not want to play.  Landed a ton of large yellow perch and 1 pickerel.  A deep diving crank bait that imitated a craw fish was the lure of the day.  Last night I guided two fly anglers on a small mountain brook where the water temperature was 57 degrees.  The water level was still above the seasonal average, but the clarity was fine.  Saw a number of #14 yellow sallies hatching.  We fished rubber legged stimulators and found brook trout in big primary pools.  Not many fish in secondary water.  We landed several 8" plus brookies and lost a few.  All upstream presentation with a high stick mend.  No fly line on the water.  Pretty consistent fishing and good to see all different size classes of brook trout.  Remember to clean your gear and keep the non-native species at home.  Have Fun, Willy
