We had rain here most of the day. There were a few breaks and I took advantage of one to give the early-70s vintage Wright & McGill Eagle Claw ECP reel a work out. Of course, it has to go with the custom Eagle Claw fiberglass rod. I used a Shimano Soare jig head and some Gulp Crickets on 4 lb SOS line.

Despite some rain drops here and there, the gills seems to like the crickets (lots of real ones around here these days).

Caught twelve in about an hour. A heavy down pour ended the session.
