Ive been to the mile in the middle of summer at dusk and walked down by the bank once when i was younger and you could hear millions of skeeters in the distance. As you got closer to the water it was like a plague. There was no way you could get to the bank it was that thick and that many. No trout is worth a calamine lotion bath to me. It was insane.Nice! I would take a day like that anytime over my last day. I fished all day on Sunday at 11 mile and got nothin. Ran over to Monument just to see if I could get a taste and I caught a dink LM. Paid dearly for it. The mosquitoes had me for dinner.
