I'll blame my slow reflexes this afternoon on the New York Yankees. I must have been suffering from a lack of sleep from the late night ballgames this past week. I caught a handful, but probably missed twice as many as I caught this afternoon.
The temperature hovered around 65 degrees and the water temperature was at 52 degrees. Although I have to say it sure felt colder than that this afternoon. I fished downstream from Rt. 36 around 4:00 this afternoon. The bridge was pretty crowded, but everyone seemed to be fishing upstream. Caught a couple on very small BWO's. The water appears to be trying to clear up, but the rains the past few days still are making the Mad a tad discolored. The leaves are pretty much gone and were not a problem all day. Hopefully with game seven of the World Series we will all get a little more sleep this week.
