Sat. the wife and I headed to our favorite spots and wow was the rver low in the AM, so low in fact the shoals were not navigable. We were doing pretty well then when the water hit it was cloudy like heavy rains. Plus weeds looked like someone had been after the coontail with a weedeater somehwere up steam. This almost shut the fish down... Using anything just was bad, to much crap in the water. We finsihed with our limits but had to work for the better fish. Still these were under the normal size we keep.

The dirty water was the result of not generating for three days and then kicking on two full units. I was out in it all day. It was tough and we also had pretty heavy wind to contend with. We still caught some nice fish but we had to work for them. The hot fly was a magenta worm. Go figure.
