Clear Creek

My friend Chad at Clear Creek asked me for a few photos from New Zealand to consider for their annual catalog. I bet he is just super bored at work today and needs some new pictures to look at. Either way here they are.

Tonight Mikey and I sat at the Levee in a spot other than our usual spot because a half a dozen people had our spot. the word must’ve got out that there are fish there. I wonder if they were disappointed to only catch Drum and Redhorse. Mikey an I would’ve loved to catch something [...]

Mikey and I got out to Levee Park to drown some crawlers and catch the sunset tonight. We have been catching Drum here and that is what we were after. I got one Shorthead Redhorse, caught a spectacular sunset, and watched a barge work its way upriver to the Port.

Dad was in town today for some Catfish action. We launched at the St. Charles boat landing and cruised down to Trempeleau for some Mud Cats. Finding none we headed upriver to try for some backwater pike however we hit a wing dam and took out the prop. We ended up still driving just above [...]

Little Bella sticks by us when we camp. She even ventured into the toilets when we showered.

Shell, Shan, Mikey and I all piled into Mikey’s battle van with two canoes on the roof and headed south. I have been tracking the mayflies for the better part of four years. We stopped for a few photos at the bootleggers caves in Brownsville for my friends at Clear Creek. We also scouted Wildcat [...]

I noticed the presence of the Hex this morning as I got back into my car after stopping at Kwik Trip to get a Kona Coffee and some cigarettes before work. For my lunch break I took a drive to the spillway to look for more mayflies. The mayflies hatched last night. I tied flies [...]

I was teaching a class at University to students that were from places other than Winona when the Tornado sirens went off. I have lived here for nearly six years and the sirens have only ever sounded on test day around the first of the month. The storm was coming. I found Shell in the [...]

Today I scouted a spot south and east of town in search of more Raspberries. I was treated with a bagful of berries, a Painted Turtle laying eggs, and a bunch of medicinal flowers blooming under a dead down tree.

Shell and I went to St. Mary’s University today to pick Raspberries. We found about a gallon of them. The best part about this hike and pick was that we were greeted by a young deer that stood only 15-feet away from us posing enough for me to take a few photos before it calmly [...]

Back to Prairie Island to get more Raspberries. Today the mosquitos were incredibly bad. I found a young song bird hanging in some Buckthorn. She posed for me to take several shots. Shell was happy with her bag of Raspberries and so was I.

What a way to spend a weekend with some college buddies than to get a flotilla of canoes to go down the Root River? None. Today was day two. We were on the way out. We had a great night and great paddle yesterday while covering 15 miles of river. The crags were awesome and [...]
