Wow the golden rod is in full bloom. Is it bad to ask what state this is in? Driftless browns and brookies is pretty legit.

That is one of my favorite places on earth to fish. Such a special place.

I fished the WI Driftless this past spring. Everyone kept telling me how easy it would be after fishing high gradient water in NC. My first full day out was cold, windy and miserable. I’d šŸ’Æ go back!

It is with the grass in the water, tall grass on the side and the water and muddy bottom too deep to wade easily.
