Weather change on Shasta once again.

Well, the past several days of spring like weather was nice, but we're headed back into a fowel weather pattern once again.  It looks like we'll see a few breaks here and there, but the forecast is cloudy and a little wet for the next week or so.  No biggie, the browns prefer dark windy days anyway and maybe we'll see a lot more bites this week.  Fishing was slow yesterday, but we did catch some trout and the occasional open water bass.  The big story was that we hit two really big fish, we just couldnt get em to the net.  Thats a good sign, and I've heard of several big fish hooked and lost this week already.  Water temps are on the rise and I think we'll see some big ones this week!
