A Whole Lotta Fishing Goin On!
Not too bad of day today. The sun it out and it is in the low 50s. We can handle that. Tomorrow looks like another today and Sunday and Monday look even nicer. Mid 60s Sunday and mid 70s Monday through Wednesday. Right now, Wednesday looks like a windy one with winds 20-30 mph. Then, a cooler Thursday with chances of rain.
The flood gates, aka spillway gates, were closed yesterday around 4:00 p.m. We are now experiencing two generators which is the projection through Monday.

Wednesday Jim on the water with Gina. They were doing best, due to the heavy shad population in the water from the spillway gates, on anything white. With five gates open plus the generators, it was a little tough fishing.
Thursday, Darrell and Carolyn took Jon and his son Scott, and his son, Andrew out for half a day. This was Andrew’s first outing with a fly rod and he did well.

It was another anything white day for this group. Friday Stan and Gina took them out again and things got even better. Andrew was hot from the gate, and caught more and bigger fish than his first day. I think he has this fly fishing figured out. Gina had Scott and Andrew stripping the silver bullet, which they really liked.

Last, but certainly not least, Carolyn took Megan and her mother Susan out for half a day on Friday. This was Megan’s second time with a fly rod and Susan’s first. Good, fun day for the ladies. Megan could do no wrong. All her fish were nice. Once we got Susan up to speed with a hook set, she brought in a few fish. They even shared the spotlight with a double during the trip.
