Wachusett Reservoir, MA, 4/3/2017

Lake trout caught on a Kastmaster in the Thomas Basin of the Wachusett Reservoir at sunset

As a swan glided over the basin and landed noisily, the sun fell on the treeline. I slowed down my presentation when I felt a relaxing calm, then a fish on.

At a pleasant 58°F, with no wind, the reservoir was uncommonly tranquil, especially compared to 2 days ago
