Left work at 330 and headed down to riegelsville to check out the water, river conditions in general. I have not seen the river this low in a while, what a relief! Anyway started chucking my BINSKY collection, slow rollin, jiggin, snap jigging and came up with a 17 inch BROOK TROUT, full of eggs! Took a pic and let her swim away. I kept casting and jiggin and came up with one more fish, a chunky 14 inch smallie. Could not get any love from the walleye today fishing off land, I believe they are in full spawn on the river with these insanely warm temps. All in all a short but good time on the river. I was just thrilled to be near water for a change instead of working. TIGHT LINES FELLAS!!!

Thanx for the report. Seems like you never know what you are going to get when you cast a line into the BIG D !

Andy I checked all my creek spots where they usually stage to run up and spawn, there was nothing there. Waters are way too low for the eyes to get in. Oh well!!!
