Fishing in the Evening

Jesse and I decided to sneak out for the evening and get some fishing in.  The weather, after having been nice all day, took a turn for the worse.  A little before we set out, a steady rain began to fall and we almost called it off, but decided to man up and go for it anyway.  Driving to the stream, the skies opened up and it really started pouring, but we were not to be denied.  By the time we got to the stream, the rain had backed off a bit, and after a half hour or so, the sun came out again.  It ended up being a spectacular evening.

Due to the nasty weather at the outset, we went with spinning rods and salted minnows.  We hiked around a bit and found a few really nice pools, but sadly, no fish were biting what we had to offer.  I had a few give my minnow a look but the weren't interested enough to take the bait.

Before we knew it, it was getting pretty dark and we had quite a ways to get back to the car.  No fish, but a beautiful night nonetheless.
