I have been doing lots of fishing trips with families this week. I had back to back family trips Saturday and Sunday both times fishing for bass. When you have two or three lines in the water the opportunity for catching several fish at the same time is always there but it usually does not happen.
I took the opportunity before and after my trip yesterday to do a little experimenting with the bass fishing. Normally I do not consider either largemouth or smallmouth bass to be especially fussy about what fly or lure they want but yesterday proved that wrong.
The rain on Friday fell heavily and I knew that it made the Saint George rise quickly but got quite a surprise this morning on arrival at the boat launch on Megunticook Lake in Camden. The parking lot was almost completely covered with water! I had arranged to meet my client at his rental cottage on the lake so I had to launch. I was able to pull into the parking area and launch the boat into the flooded parking lot.
