Well, season is starting to take shape only the catching is still behind schedule. My tally for the season is one little brown trout and five shiners so far. The weather has turned from high temps. to chilly conditions recently. Our last big trout trip to the Mohne river was a disaster due to flooding. One of us called the shop to ask about conditions and was told fishing was good, when we arrived three times more water flowed through the river as during normal conditions. It is still a little early to catch fish in numbers I guess. Below a photo collection of the last two weeks.
One of the little trout my fishingbuddy Joop caught, last fall they where half this size.
It is starting to get green in the countryside

Normally almost no water flows through the bypass.
