Nice fish. But look at the flows. The yellow triangles are daily averages. We’re so used to all this rain that rivers are starting to “look low” when in reality, they remain higher than normal.

You're right but I failed to mention that I fished below the pump house, I guess they have the water flow cut way down, next trip will be above

Been out twice on a different river and spots I usually kill ‘em aren’t producing. Last night only thing they would bite were shrimp eggs.
