Notes

Another tough day of fishing, albeit fishing a new and unfamiliar area. Didn't get a single nibble. That water was fast and according to the Westham guage, a 1 foot higher than what I have been fishing (it was listed at 6'). With that said, most of the rocks that I see around Huguenot were underwater, sure seemed like more than 6'.

Saw a few bass hitting the surface but I couldn't get anything to bite.
