Just wrapped up a fantastic few days at the Russian River. We found a great place at a bend in the river with its own little private beach and sandbar you could wade out to.
The beach and sandbar created a number of interesting ebbs, flows and eddies in the river and we had a lot of fun testing each spot for fish.
After abandoning bait for lures we had a respectable showing. Pulling in a good number of trout over the course of a few days (with only one big enough to keep and BBQ). But the prize went to Spencer who pulled in a very healthy bass (which Marcus holding below).
Although it was a bit cool this time of year the mosquitoes were very light, so it wasn't a bad trade. And the place was absolutely teaming with life. There was a constant stream of ducks, osprey, fish, swallows, an otter and lots of fish. It was a great way to spend Easter weekend.
