Today was my first day of my fishing season, looked at the weather and decided to go do some Trout fishing. I usually go to Hasse Lake with my wife because there is a nice dock for her to sit on (she doesnt do fishing). Anyway, I tried fishing at Star lake last year before and never have any luck there, not even a smal fry. Today it was nice and overcast, first tried with just the usual bobber worm combo and lost a pretty decent one (I made the stupid mistake of tightening my drag instead of lossening and my 4 lb tested line snapped lol). used the same combo for about another hour and no action at all, not even a bite. So I decided to switched to a pickerel rig with worms since the sun sneaked out for awhile. My first cast and in a few minutes there goes the dip. This time didnt few like the one that I lost so I thought its going to be a small one. When I got the sucker out, damn thats the biggest Rainbow I have ever caught. (its about 16" to 17")
