well today I got up early and went fishing at the reservoir. it was a great time because the water is super low. I got to see the old town of lexington that was covered by 130 feet of water. I caught one little trout.. he looked kinda sick so I put him back. I did have fun making a shelter out of my camo pancho. I sat around and tied some flies then came home. it was a great time.

Wow man that's nasty. I hate seeing reservoirs that are so low. Take lots of pictures of structure though, when it fills back up the you'll know where the fish are hanging out!
 
That's awesome! I'm gonna have to get out there and check out the old town of Lexington, while I still can. I guess this is only the third or fourth time it has been visible.

Nice tarp setup!
 
Nice pics. When I was living in Santa Clara, we used to catch crawfish out of Lexington. This was back in the mid 80's. We'd catch a couple of 5 gal. bucketsfull and have a feed later in the day.
 
Thas really neat. I would love to check that out with a metal detector in tow. My kinda time!!!!
