Fished Yesterday Early, Before The River Turned Chocolate

[RSBreth]

Me and the little scrub fished the Linden area early yesterday until the river started looking really off color. Thinking about rain upstream, we left in a hurry, but the water wasn't really rising all that much, so who knows what the muddy color is about.

We went to the park in Ozark for a while so he could continue his casting practice (a new-to-him spincast combo for his birthday) but the water there stayed the same slightly dingy color it was for the past few days.

Running errands this morning I drove by the boat ramp and there were several folks with boats standing around looking at the 'Yoo-Hoo" colored water.

It isn't up that much, but it's muddy, so be advised if you were planning to fish the Finley today or tomorrow. I went by the Lake Springfield ramp (under 65) and the James looks fine, just a little dingy from the rain.

I can hardly wait, the little dude is learning to cast pretty well already, and I don't post as much good stuff as I used to, so here you go.

Classic.
