Hit the river this morning.
Needed a nature fix this morning and was pleasently rewarded. There was 2 trees with at least 100 Snowy Egrets in full plummage. Saw several Blue Herons in full plummage. Manatees were out and about eating the abundance of water lettuce that has washed down with all the high water. Watched a family of otters for about 20 minutes. Bald eagles and Ospreys were out fishing. Had several flights of wood ducks zoom by at predawn in the fog. River has dropped about a foot but still above the banks in the woods. Maybe by next week if no rains she will be back inside her banks. Only managed 3 Warmouth and 1 speck. But had a great morning on the water. Had left my trolling poles at home, but maybe next weekend I will try pullin the river or just stick with single polin em. I love fishing Monroe but there sure aint much scenery out there. Ran into 3 other boats of fellers I know and we ended up just settin and bs'n for about an hour. Talked to Crappieday and he was doing much better than we all were. Anyway hope yall had a great day! Sorry no pics, phone camera stinks at anything over 3' away.
