We drove over the bridge and I knew that it was going to be great. This river is the ULTIMATE wading river. Deep holes and riffles everywhere you look. The water temperature didn't freeze you to death either. Dave and I got there about 9:30 and the day was just perfect. We fished for the first hour without catching a thing and then began to catch a few just before lunch. After taking a quick lunch, we relocated upriver and within 10 minutes had equaled what we had caught in the morning. Largest was a 14" smallie, but the action was unbelievable. I had one jump out of the water to catch the lure before it had settled.
I can't convey how much I love this river. I spent most the day up to my waist and only had a few cuts and bruises. When it was all said and done, we packed up at 7 pm and headed home. Dave kept the pressure on me all day and finished with 34. In total we caught 77. Awesome day!
