Prien Lake 4-14 /Big Lake 4-16

[Natetxag]

Fished Prien Lake thursday night out of my grandpas kayak (2nd time ever) and strung up 10 trout and 1 22' red. I stuck about 25 trout only got my hands on 10 due to that dang kayak. About flipped the thing over ever time I got a trout within hands reach. Turned out good but it sure was a new challenge... Fished Big Lake on Friday and struck out due to the gale force winds. Decided to stay and make a wade with Bruce on Sunday and ended up catching a few reds and a big trout down south in 2 1/2 ft water water on hard mud/scattered shell. Was getting blown out of the water on top in 2ft rollers but no takers other than reds. Switched over to a pearl floater and it was on! Extremely tough conditions all week but grinding it out sure did pay off
