Thanks, I'll be down there June 18-20 but will only be able to fish that Friday the 18th so I better make it count and pick the right spot to fish! :D

I tried it a little while yesterday late afternoon. Only caught a handful of dinks and tied into a large (most likely) catfish that came off. No keepers. Like Andy said, it has been a strange bite, but, then again, I 40 often is.
