I have been negligent in keeping up my fishing blog. October 10th was my last outing at out rainbow lake stocked with 2nd year fish, a very successful experiment by MNRF. Bass were killing off 1st year brookies or at least starving them. 2nd year rainbows are much more aggressive.
Right after that outing, I fell victim to Lyme's Disease from a tick bite. In just three weeks I was in a wheel chair unable even to easily get out of it. I was sent for an MRI and when that failed to reveal anything, they assumed Lyme's and started treatment. I was lucky compared to others before me in getting a diagnosis even before proof. I recovered almost as quickly as I went down.
