I can tell you 2013 was a cold winter and one of the better big trout fall/winter/springs I have had, since 2007.


Lot of 7lb. fish with numerous 8lb fish and a few 9's.


Those big fish just have turned out like previous winters, last winter was the influx of fresh water and water temps not hardly getting into the 50's.


Historically when the water temp holds consistently in the 50's for days or weeks is when those bid sows push up to eat. This is just strictly on the data I keep on the trips we make.


This fall was a little irregular because the 5-6lb. fish were spread out and thin in areas they are holding in. There were a lot of 3-4lb. fish in these same areas we have fished since the late 90's
