I think it's that time of the year.The combination of higher water temps and a lotta food (shadlets) has definitely tilted things in favor of the fish and not fishermen. On any given day now it takes a combination of skill, the right lures, the right area, the right timing and a lotta luck to score very much.
Can't wait until the first fall storm cools off the water and puts the fish on notice that winter might be coming...and to put on the feed bag again. Also, the shad will be thinned a bit so the predators will respond more to the silly stuff anglers show them.
Time to point my float tube toward other waters and let Willard reestablish some kind of normal again...whatever that might be. But if there is no school and nobody is going back to work there will still be 7 day weekends. That sure messes it up for us retired geezers that like a bit of solitude through the week.
