Comments

Scott and I got out and did a little bass fishing tonight, and needless to say it is not really worth talking about. Except I do have to mention I did better than Scott and he almost went home skunked.
The fishing was very poor, the fish we did catch were small except for the one largemouth I caught was fifteen inches. I did lose two nice bass, one was a small mouth and one was a largemouth. It was really funny to see Scott towards the end of the night, he still had a skunk going and he was definitely uptight about it. Shortly before dark he did luck out and got the monkey off his back.

Observations:

The river is fairly green and the flow is almost non-existent, but the floating weeds have not yet invaded the main channel.
