Second cast of the season

Here is a picture of that 20 inch brown from the Owego Creek caught on the second cast of the season. He fell to a Panther Martin and what a thrill to nail one like this on opening day. The water is very very cold and you have to be almost dredging the bottom to get them to hit. We are supposed to get some warm rain this week and this will help get some heat into the streams which are right now pure ice water. That is all for now, fish hard.
