Comments

Scott and I were hoping to repeat the luck we had last night this evening. It did not materialize. We had several misses but we did not bring one flat head into the boat. The bluegills are still biting rather well out in the sloughs. The key to finding them is wood with some type of current break.

Observations

Very limited fish fly hatch tonight with scattered storms around the area.
