fishing in very clear water about a mile south of the the "secret
spot",

Here's what this area looks like:

Try tying up a few Madam X's about size 10, all black. I would guess
the fish think they are crickets. Over the past 10 years, this is
the most productive late summer/early fall pattern I have used.

I'll do that. IIRC, we had the same discussion last year at this
time. I always forget about hopper patterns for some reason.

This time of year, banging big dries off the bank can be a lot of fun
in that river. *Far* more fun than the alternative of fishing the
fricken' minutiae that's carried under the dam.

It appears there's very little water coming over the flashboards now
(finally!) Did you happen to get the temperature of the river while
you were shivering in it? ;-)

-1" (that's about where it resided)

/daytripper (thinking I might chill in it on Wednesday)

Mmmmmmmm. . . . Wednesday. . . . I might be able to swing some time off in
the PM, 'tho Thursday PM would be better. 'You wanna see about getting
together to talk politics and religion? ;-)

Thursday might work. We'll see how it goes.
