Floating The James

[mmirg]

We floated the James on Fri. 5/15 from around Crane Creek to below Cox Ford. The water was pretty high. We threw mostly finess worms and some cranks. Fishing was slow for the most part. I went with my buddy and my 10 yr old son. We ended up with about 8 smallies all around 12", 1 K, and 1 goggle eye and a needle nose gar on a plastic crawdad. I did manage to match my biggest smallie so far, a 19.5" on a 5" dark purple senko. The gar were slashing minnows all day long. mmirg

That may be the smallie of a lifetime for some on the James, so congrats man! Well done.
