Hotter than a solar flare.
Fished two days this weekend for Monster Cats and pretty much got a couple of dinks. Maybe 14 for two days of fishing and biggest was about 17 lbs.
The trash line in the river was such a pain that I had to move from good marks on the finder several times just keep the lines clear of all the trees moving on the tides.
Painfull weekend all in all. Nice weather and good customers but the bite was way off.
