Comments

Tonight I took a co-worker and his son out for some flat head fishing. It was a very hot night and the action was a little on the slow side. We were able to catch our bait, but it was not fast and furious.
The first spot we set up on did not even produce a bite. After an hour at flat head alley we moved out to some water closer to the main channel. We caught two fish. They were not big, but Michael had fun bringing them in. Overall all it was a good trip. We did not catch the numbers or size we were hoping for but Anthony and Michael had a good time.

Observations

River is still very high and ripping.
