First off I believe the state of trout around Lunenburg is not in the best =
of shape. Last year was the first time in my lifetime that I did not catch=
any brook trout at all. This year is shaping up more or less the same. I=
've visited most of my local haunts that always gave me fish early in the s=
eason without any luck and I've been out numerous times. All that I caught=
was a bass on my first outing. I've scratched Broad Cove Brook off of my =
list as officially dead of life. This brook from a recent visit was the lo=
west I've seen it for this time of the year. There was a six pack ring fro=
m beer left behind suggesting that any trout that might have been there mig=
ht already have been caught. There still should been some life signs of fis=
h. Traditionally every nook and cranny once had trout. A number of years =
ago, probably ten or so now they clear cut and siltated the brook. After t=
hat things steadily went downhill. The entire brook was siltated when I vi=
sited it on the weekend. This is the story with many of my traditional hau=
nts. No fish at all anymore. On the bright side I did see my first leopar=
d frog of the year there. This morning I heard my first black-throated gre=
en warbler calling outside of my home in LaHave. It only vocalized the onc=
e though.
