That is the right attitude Lucas!

With the water coming up, make sure YOU KEEP AN EYE UP RIVER JUST ABOUT ALL THE TIME!!!!

There is a lot of bigger stuff flaoting down river now and they might look like they aren't moving too fast, but they are. It can turn a fun time out into a nightmare..... or a lot worse!

Yes, be very careful for the next month and a half or so.

A large log can float down and hook up on your anchor line.
It will ride up the rope, pull down the front of the boat and sink you.

Have a knife (to cut your anchor line if necessary) and an oar handy (push stuff out of the way).

Fish are getting smaller and smaller.  Still haven't got skunked yet.  Caught one today.  Time to find another area.
