Water was clear green
Northern hit about 8 :45 am wind came up to 10 to 12 maybe a little more = Beautiful day
It cleared up and was 70 plus deg.
It a easy trip down and back – FM 616 boat Ramp was in good shape
My sonar showed fish up and down the water column , with most of the bigger ones on the bottom. the water was any where between 6 to 12 ft , with holes up to 20 ft
“Fly of the Day”- White & chartreuse Clouser , Gold KreeLex and White minnow. , with sink tip and Intermediate lines.
We ended up with 8 member coming down and fishing most of the morning. we have 3 boat and 2 kayak. Very slow and small undersize spec’s
Scott Fossum caught 7 specs all 14in
Glen, Puck & Vitali caught 3 or 4 specs, I don’t know if they were keeper

Very beautiful river up stream from the bridge , we went a couple mile up the West fork.
Ben & I took off to explorer Redfish Bay and pole the Lee side /north side and came away with one nice slot Red.
