Back to the scene of the crime !! Met up with Maddhatterr aorund 6 am or so, fished big stuff at the pipe and the falls, nothing. Did see 1 nice shad caught. Water is getting lower and cleaner by the minute. Working on a learning curve for the stripers. An hour or so was just standing around BS'ing about tackle, tactics etc, Maddhatterr has a wealth of knowledge.
Saw alot of turtles in the canal and a big water snake. Found a huge crayfish near the rocks, got him untangled out of some old line and set him free. Nice day to be outside.
