July 8, 2016 Fri

July 8, 2016 Fri 530PM-1130PM-flat head fishing with Norn and Riley
Where: Mississippi R. pool 9, Genoa
Weather: (1953) NW12, 75 °, clear
H2O: 6.3↓, 45 kcfs, clear, 78°
Caught: bait and 1 flat head approx. 5 lb.

Observations: We had a major may fly hatch tonight! The river is still fairly fast, but it is clean.

The fishing was not stellar tonight. I was fishing an area that I had never fished before so I had to wing it. The bluegills were fairly easy to catch on the rocks in front of the power plant. A couple of bites and one small flat head is all we could coax from the mighty river tonight.
I don’t think Riley will want to go out flat head fishing again. She was definitely freaked out from all the mosquitoes and may flies in the nighttime sky.
