Was a good day and a long day, just wasn't great for fishing. Finally got to meet up with the Jigmiester. He is one awesome dude and along with him he brought his sweet lady who is about as polite as anyone I can imagine. With them they brought two other friends. I brought my buddy Tracy and my daughter. So you would think between 7 people we would get something, but the fish gods didn't agree. The fishing was not good at all for multiple reason I believe one was water is up higher than I have seen it ever and barely a current to speak of, also Jigmiester's idea of a low pressure system being almost immediatly replaced with a high pressure messed with the fish. Though not a good fish day it was a total 5 plus rating for a good time with some awesome new friends. Thanks guys for making the long trek up and next time we will get into the fish.

Very nice photos. Sorry, we didn't make it to the south end to meet you, but one of these days I hope to run into you out there! I'm sure you'll get them next time!

I agree with Jiggy...that's the true gift. As far as reasons...my experience shows the last 2 reasons not being very favorable, but especially the low flow...that's a killer! I can't wait to get back there around March and maybe meeting some of you!

The more people I meet from this site the happier I become. I have now met four in person and many more online. Yeah the water flow was just strange and high. That is okay the next time will be more fun.
