Friday's float..

[yaknar]

I've been out twice since my last post but with the river up and rolling... I caught fish but not a lot and nothing big. Two Saturdays ago I went, when that pop up storm, popped up. It probably rained and the wind blew harder on me than anytime I been in a kayak on the river. I didn't know if it was better waving my aluminum paddle in the air or hide under the trees on the bank and getting hit by falling limbs.... I got out Friday and floated to Delaware. And I did get the waders out because I'm a woose and it was cold. There is a tree across the river down from Nelson Mill bridge. I tried a lot for lures but the one I caught the most on was a crankbait that dives 12ft. When I took out a Delaware the were no cars or trucks in the lot. River is still to fast and high for me but I think its the new normal. Had a great time on the river. Took pictures of a few and released them all...

You are the cat catching machine. That white is up there a ways isn't it. 

Where do you put in at to float to Delaware?

Those are some pretty fish. The small jaw on the gravel is a nice one. The white must not be a boy scout, think he's lost a bit. Looks like you had a decent trip good mix of fish. Glad to hear a report. Thanks for info.

Nice report. My brother caught a lost white a couple weeks ago as well. I second flysmallie where did you put in?

[yaknar]

I put in at Nelson Mill Bridge. I don't park my truck there, my wife drops me off.... you just have to pull your kayak through a couple patches of poison ivy, then under the bridge there's about a ten foot drop off. And did I mention the snakes and gators.....

yeah you definitely have watch out for those James river gators. They are brutal.
