Comments:

Brett and I decided to fit in some fishing over the holiday weekend.  It was sunny and warm all day, however the wind was very strong throughout the day.  We decided to give the river a try in the evening hoping to stay out of the strong winds.  To our surprise, the wind wasn't a factor once we got on the river.  Other than a few nibbles we never boated a fish.  Brett did catch a few snags on the bottom and even a large stick!!
