Couple Of Mornings On The James..

[RSBreth]

I didn't catch anything big fishing a couple of morning this weekend on the James - the water's low, it's hot - everyone knows it can be tough out there - but I'm always optimistic on my chances of catching a big fish.

Not this time.

I did see a nice bald eagle, caught a couple of bonus white bass, saw one riffle where 5 great blue herons were fishing, and managed to half fill the Pack with beer/water can and bottles coming back downstream on one trip.

It's hot, the water's low, but I had a great time fishing both mornings. I fished the lower James the first morning,and then the middle. I put in and paddled up both trips.
