20200311 GRR FishOut & Hotdogs.
20191115 BarryF & JohnP fished on lake, BarryF landed 3 rainbows, surface water 50F.
20191023 RonD says "I fished Durrance today in splendid solitude. Lots of feisty smaller fish with the occasional bigger one. Lots of fun on the five weight rod. Fish finder Marked large numbers of fish close to the bottom but I got them in slow sink line 5-8 ft down. Saw a few rises. My Duncan Special wet fly was the secret today.
