Unfortunately, the weather is a factor, and looks like it will continue to be through the next week. I went out behind Bart's yesterday between 3 and 4:30 pm. I saw two working the boat ramp, and there were two working the shore upstream of the RR bridge when I arrived. Nobody had fish. By the time I left, there were ten of us on the bank above the RR bridge, and one of the five kids in the group landed a 3# buck, the only fish I saw. One of the regulars told me they had been hammering the shad just the day before from about noon to 3-ish. Story of my life...
Terminal tackle: 3/8 oz drail over a 2-1/2' of 8# flouro leader, and a green/white hammered silver willow.
