Cold Water Float Tubing

I figure I might be able to swing one more float tube outing before the water temperatures drop beyond manageably comfortable levels in this part of the world.I managed to get out for a day last weekend, fishing at the Bing Retreat.  The last time I was there was in April and it was cold then too.  Note to self, next year plan a trip at a more hospitable time.  The Bing is private water and Chris Fisher manages a great fishing lake not far from home.Although things started slowly with a bit of wind and snow flakes, it turned out to be a great day.  I managed four nice rainbow trout which is not a lot but still better than not fishing at all.This was the first trout after lunch.  He must have thought my olive wooly bugger looked like something worth eating.This was rainbow number two.  Great colors on these fish.This rainbow looks so completely different from the pervious two.Its now the following Saturday afternoon.  The short days mean its getting dark already.  Monday is a day off.  A chance to get out one more time?
