The fish were on a terror tonight! But the ratio of fish I hooked to the ones I brought back to the old tub was not great. The evening was picture perfect for July: no wind, 72 degrees, and no humidity. No humidity in itself made for a great night. I do believe the slop bite is about to pick up. I am sensing that from the location I caught some of my fish at tonight.
I had the river pretty much to myself, except for about a dozen kayakers out for a group outing. I was very courteous and idled past them. I suppose I could have roared through the whole pack and watched them scatter like a pod of coots! But that would not be very nice and they have every right to enjoy the river. Besides I like to see all types of recreation on the river.
