We fished out of Riverpark the last 3 hours before dark. The flow was 86K cfs when we got there and 91 when we left. The water temp. was around 46.7. The water clarity was good except for So. Chick. Crk., which was still muddy. The wind was gusting pretty badly. It was slow fishing for us. We caught one legal smallie (18.25 in., 3.6 lbs.), 2 smaller ones (16 and 12 in.) and a 13 in. spot. The smallies were caught on tube and jig/pig baits, the spot on a spinner bait. All fish were released.<br />We fished rip-rap between the C.B. Robinson Bridge and the Country Club. First time we got on the water in 10 days and we enjoyed it! There were quite a few boats out considering the conditions.
