Comments:

I had a request from my old friend norm to take him and his daughter out flat head fishing. How could I refuse! From a past outing with Riley I knew she had a passion for fishing, and I can truthfully say that fire is still burning.
Riley got to handle all the flat head bites, and she did a good job of it. We had good action and three fish made it boat side.

Observations:

The river is finally in good shape for flat head fishing. We were easily able to anchor on a main side channel next to the main navigation channel. A major fish fly hatch was taking place this evening out on the man made islands.
