Notes

Again today I did better on trout than I did my intended bait species. I'm going to have to find somewhere without so many trout so I can catch some trapping bait. The water is too warm to stress the trout out so much, that is the main reason the one died.

It was a nice afternoon till late. There was a major storm moving in on me, and the weather went south quick. I got out just before it started to rain, and shortly after we got one heck of a storm. The creek is now well over the banks and looks more like a mud flow.
