My brothers and I hit the the river yesterday Am about 6. It was foggy and the water was a bit muddy. But as the day wore on the water started clearing and the bite took off.

We use Rebel deep craws, in light green and were catching smallies fairly often and several goggle eye and bream. As the day went on the water cleared and the smallies turned on to the CD-5 and CD-3 Rapala in Black with gold sides.

My youngest Brother was lucky enough to land an otter, a family of pups were playing just past the HWY 65 bridge and one of the pups decided the fish on brothers rod was dinner. Well he had his hands full as the pup impaled its cheek on the rear hooks. We beached the boats and hit the shore with beach towels in hand managed to get on over the pup and it calmed down, then finally we managed to remove the hook, noone was owrse for the weeeear, no bites from otter pup either. But its family was going crazy around us.

This is only the second time I have seen otters in the wild and to see a family of five pups was pretty cool. I am sure that hole is sparse on fish too.
