Another venture into our semi-private Quebec lake a couple of hours north of Ottawa. This lake gets no fishing pressure to speak of even by the five odd residences on the lake. We rarely see another fisher on the lake. It has been a strange year. Everything is late and wet. It had rained the night before. A cold front moved in at noon and I was actually feeling uncomfortably cool in the tube. Of course I didn't bring my jacket. Why would you so close to August! Both of us had only caught about five sizeable LM when it was time to head back. I tried double flies with different colours. It turns out that "white" was the colour! This 22 inch LM was nibbling on the fly and I thought it was the black WB which the small ones liked. Get off you stupid little fish! Oh, this is a stupid BIG fish! I used an intermediate line all day.
