Pine River Manitoba July 5th & 6th

We went to what is called the Clearwater Creek Crossing on the Pine River. It was easier getting in this year because it was a very low rain and so it was no dicey bits. I mean it’s a it’s not a proper road and you do have to drive slow especially if you don’t have a high clearance vehicle like I don’t. Three fish were caught in three hours and the water is kind of low and again it wasn’t as good as it was three years ago but better than the last time when the bugs sent me scrambling Here’s a picture of me wearing the outfit that allowed me to fish there long enough to catch actual fish!

Found Large Prints Looks like wolf over a bear print.

The next day we explored Old Crossing and Lovers Leap. Beautiful but low water no trout.

A little bit of video. Again my new method is to only hit the record button when I have a fish on because that’s what you guys want to see but if I forget to turn it off after a fish then the next time somebody gets a fish I end up turning it off.
So it’s a short video you can see two small fish caught and you can see one fish hooked by my partner but then I turned it off so we don’t see him land it. I think it was a nice fish I don’t remember.

And then a bit of video footage from the lower section that we were exploring that had no fish I did catch a chub there but you know anyways. We know the place better we’ll explore it more next year hopefully the water’s higher.
