Default Delaware River float 5/5/12

My brother and I took a float down the Delaware on Saturday. Since the video is in the works, I'll just give a brief summary. Water was stained and a little high, or at least higher than it has been lately. We started in Lordville and floated all the way to Long Eddy. Most of the fish we caught were on spinners in fast water. The fish were pretty spread out.

Final fish tally:

My brother: One 19" brown trout, two 20+" shad, two walleye ~15", one 15" smallmouth.

Me: One 17.5" rainbow, one 17" brown, one 14" walleye, two 20+" shad, one 10" chub, and a dink smallmouth. Not to mention I missed four 18+" brown trout, which really stung.

A few pics below. Video is in the works.
