Tuesday, Aug 28, 2012Quote(s) of the Day: We finished the morning with a beautiful rainbow at the bridge. The afternoon finished the same way with a super rainbow at 3 rocks. Well done!
Fishing Highlights:
We hooked some really big fish. Some we landed, some we got close to landing and some showed us who was the boss. The fish were keen to the double dry rigs in the afternoon and we landed some beauties.The fishing is good. Overcast skies and 60+ degree weather. The water temperature was between 56-59 degrees and Slightly Off.
