Fishing is Hot

 At the beginning of the season, we were praying for rain.  Already there had been more forest fires in the area this spring than last year, so we knew the dryness was a serious condition.  Thankfully the rains have come... and keep coming.  It seems like it rains a bit every day.  The lake is up now to where it needs to be and all the new trees, and gardens I have planted have been thoroughly watered with the rain.  It sure saves me a lot of time going around watering with a hose. 


The may flies are in full season, but that has not stopped the excellent fishing on Indian Lake and the whole area.  Some campers from Wisconsin and Illinois Jim Fitzgerald, Kevin Hodgson Mike Fitzgerald and his son Mike are having great success on Indian Lake as well as some newcomers, the Bob Jensen family from Edgerton, Wisconsin.  They went out this morning and came back with a string of walleyes and said they had to keep throwing them back because they had already caught their limit.  That's a fine problem to have, I think.  They were all smiles.
