Comments:

My brother Dick requested that I take him and his grand kids Nora and Ike out fishing, so I graciously agreed. From the smiles on their faces and the giggles in their voices I would have to say they had a good time.
We started out fishing for panfish and that was slow. we then went bottom fishing and we caught a multitude of different fish. Nora's main goal was to catch a catfish for a fish fry and we caught two for her to take home. Ike really enjoyed reeling in the fish and was a little hoggish on the bites. Nora seemed to enjoy other people catching fish even more than herself, which was very nice to see.

Observations:

There was no sign of any fish flies tonight. The river continues to recede and the rice is starting to stand up.
