We fished the gravel and pocket water found throughout Colonial Park. Traffic on the river was light but there were still plenty who enjoyed a beautiful day on the river. Shawn and I each managed one fish but he actually came close to landing a couple more. Green was the hot color that resulted in most of the days hookups. My birthday is coming up this Friday and I’m optimistic that the river will still be holding fish on my day off!
What a blessing the weather was on Sunday, not only was it the first time we hit seventy degrees but we actually made eighty! This solidifies the thought in my mind that summer is right around the corner. With every new season come new angling opportunities and this summer I’m looking forward to broadening my horizons. Fly fishing carp and some river canoe trips are top of the list of things I’m looking to try.
Great video...you got a big smile out of me!
ReplyDeleteNow, that's what I'm talking about!!! Love it.
ReplyDeleteWhen we lived in Chicago I spent a lot of time up on the Root! Love the post and video!
ReplyDeleteGlad you guys liked it, I never put in the footage of my buddy fighting the fish around a guy who refused to move from the middle of the river. Needless to say that fish was lost.
ReplyDeleteI agree Blake... every season = different reason to fish. Great post.
