Day 46: Our local lakes provide fishermen with a wide variety of game and food species, however they are relatively unproductive during the months of colder weather. That said, a skilled angler can generally pull something out of the water if he or she is patient and can endure the hardships incumbent with the sport even during this season.
Today, I stopped at a public access on the banks of a large reservoir which is famous for its kokanee and silvers, intending to make some photographs of the leaf ice lining the shore. Imagine my surprise when I found this specimen of rare Eulachon (Thaleichthys frigidus) skimming along on the frozen surface like some mad walking catfish.
