26.April: after morning chores, I headed over to Bart's in Windsor. On arrival, instead of finding the usual crew, only one lone soul was taking casting practice. For what I don't know, as the water was dead calm and the lowest I've seen it this year. So low, the footings of the RR bridge were exposed. Natch, nothing doing there. So I headed down to the Wall.

As I pulled up, Vaughn was connected with a shad. He was in good company, about a dozen regular shadaholics lined the Wall. The river was down a couple of feet from Friday, turbid, but flowing well. Within a half hour of arrival, I hooked up and landed a little buck, which was promptly released after a Kodak™ moment. Every so often, at intervals, shad were being caught, and most released during the 3 hours I stood on the Wall. Eventually my back started barking, and hunger called for it's supper.

Tackle:
Rod: 7' one-piece Ugly Stik GX2, med-heavy action
Reel: Penn 4400SS spooled with 15# hi-viz yellow Power Pro.

Terminal tackle: 1-1/2 oz drail over a 4'+ 12# flouro leader, and hammered silver leaves in chartreuse/orange, and pink w/black dot. The former landed my One-a-Day vitamin shad.
