Description
A Lake in the Mountains where we went fishing during the years my children were growing, loved to go fishing. First, it was good recreation and always brought them almost from the time they could walk. Remember how excited they got when they made their first catch. All of them have continued the family tradition, of going fishing, for a good healthy meal. To add to the food budget, as we always ate all that we caught. They all got into telling "fish stories" exaggerating the size of what they caught. LOL Now they send me pictures of their trips with their children and my great grandchildren are now getting into the family tradition.

So here's the first rule of when to fish : Fish prefer early morning and evening sun to the bright sun of midday. Basically during the :Golden Hours 2 hours after sunrise and before sunset. Morning sun warms the shallows, creating more comfortable water temperatures for fish to feed. Late morning is best when the sun has had more of a chance to warm the shallows. This is particularly true during early spring in shallows with dark or mud bottoms because dark areas absorb heat more rapidly than light sandy bottoms.
Cloudy days improve fishing since the clouds prevent light penetration. Overcast skies signal when to fish because they cause fish to cruise for food more than they would during bright days when they tend to hide and stay close to structure. On overcast, cloudy days, fish are less likely to be at specific spots or areas and more likely to be scattered throughout a waterway.
A light rain is another good time to fish, especially a warm spring or summer rain. Rain can help you hide from the fish since the rain breaks up the view a fish has through the water surface. This is true for shore, wade or boat fishing. Rain also washes insects and fishing bait into the water, creating a feeding binge for fish.
