Awesomeness! Y’all cooling off finally?
That looks like a nice choke point there at the bridge. Some good rip rap also
On fire or just a single bite. I'm usually happy just to get out and not get skunked.

the good news is that most folks don't think about EVEN trying to ketch a crappie down there and that in turn makes it a bit less difficult to ketch a few .
River fishing is fun, and has that other element of figuring out what has changed from yesterday!:Rofl Nice story and post.

with only your senses to go on and what might or might not work, it for sure is a challenge, they change up dramatically in many cases from day to dayQuote:
