First Float

Despite feeling terrible I attempted a day at work. Unfortunately that didn't work out so well so on the way home I stopped off at Foster Arend Pond to try my luck at some stocked rainbows. After inflating my float tube I drifted out into the main lake. Almost instantly I was hooked into a nice, little rainbow. It looked like I'd be into some good fishing. Things then slowed down as the wind picked up and I managed only one more rainbow. Both fish were small and had entered the lake with the last stocking. I did manage ten or so sunnies but one can only waste so much time chasing them. Considering how I felt I figured a couple of hours of pointless drifting was enough and I headed home to feel sorry for myself.
