Cape Fair Friday morning

[Dutch]

We got there early but needn’t have because of the fog.  You could only see a few yards.  It was an hour before I got to where I wanted to fish.  I hit a few spots and moved up stream.  Twice moving up the fog became thick again.  I had a couple of blow up but no hookups on a buzz bait.  No love on the spinnerbait.  A few fish bumped a worm but none took it.

 

I pulled out the doodle as Bo called it and started catching fish.  In 3 1/2 hours I managed 10 spots and 3 greenies.  3 were keepers.  I would soak my Endura cloth in ice water and within 15 minutes it would be hot.  20 casts after # 13 were fruitless so I put out the fire and called the dogs.  My birds showed 88-90° for water temp.  Air temp was 71-89°.  Green pumpkin was the color of the day.

That's a good day.  talked to someone that fished the upper end today.  Foggy there too, and water temp 89.  Once the fog burned off it was an oven out there.

Thanks.  It sure beat the one and two fish that I have been getting at Stockton.

That’s why I keep a cooler of ice water and an Endura cloth this time of year.
