Got in about 3 hrs. of fishing out of Riverpark before dark. The flow was 75,500 cfs with some gates open. The water temp. was 42-44. Before putting in, I enjoyed a nice conversation at the ramp with wbwilly, Benny Hull and 2 gentlemen whose names I didn&#39;t get. <br /><br />I started out below the lock catching 2 drum in the 10 lb. range. I worked my way down the river fishing natural rock and rip-rap banks, some with eddies, some not. Best fish was a 19.5 in., 4 lb. 7 oz. largemouth. I also caught a 16 in. smallmouth and a 15 in. largemouth. All were caught on smoke/glitter tube baits. Tried a heavy spinner bait a few times with no success. All fish were released.
