A week's worth

Last Friday, Ben, Evan, and I hit the dam at the E. Lex Bridge. On the north side I got about 5 sunnies, but the boys couldn't catch a thing, so we went across the river. On that side we caught about 10-15 redbreast sunfish apiece. My MacBook and the camera conspired, so that I don't have those pictures.

Saturday--Robertson. Worked the weedline, drifted the middle of the lake, nothing. We did see a beaver.

Sunday--no fishing.

Monday--Mike's place. Fish#1 was Evan with a monster hybrid sunny. Fish two was mine, a sizable largemouth. Ben caught the next two largemouth, and they were nice too. One last sunny, and I had to go back to work.

Tuesday at Mike's--Evan opened again, and got a nice largemouth:
I caught three more of those, one pretty runty,
plus a sunny. Shut-out for Ben, but he pouted for maybe a minute and then laughed the whole way home.

W, Th, and F it rained on and off, first time in months, with varying degrees of intensity.

Saturday morning, we tried to fish the Maury off Stuartsburg, and the river had risen 2'. We fished the E. Lex above the dam, and got about 1/2 a bite. We went below the dam, where the water was pouring over the dam so hard the foam built up a foot high in places. We went back up above the dam, 100 yards up the road, and still nothin'. Best news to report is tomorrow we're going to the Gander Mountain in Roanoke--hope they sell parts.
