WOW is all I have to say about today. Only got in about three casts before we decided Mother Nature won today. The three casts were out in fromt of the Tribal/ Corps dock behind the dam. I fished blue neon powerbait to (try something new) until it got all weeded and debreed up. We couldn't fish out in front towards the can line do to it being 3 feet off shore. Upriver looked calmer but right behind the dam was horrid wind. We stuck it out for for 3 hours hoping for the best but in the end notta. Here is a couple pictures to show how close the cans came (they actually came closer at one point). Well until next weekend LOL...

WOW is right, I never knew the can line could come that far in. Played havoc on the fishing for sure. As you say, next weekend. Jigmeister and I fished the upper end today. Waiting for Him to post a report.

Hey Lewis look forward to reading it. Yeah we have had them come in close like that before but they always went back out when the died down or current picked up, but today the wind was relentless and the current was stronger than I have seen it in a long time, it just could not compete against the wind. How was the wind up north?

Robert, I thought it was bad when I was there. I looked for you & your fire on Saturday. I could have at least shared the misery with you.
