River Day 04/14/2014

1st catch of 2014!
Despite a little drizzly rain, we enjoyed another spring-like River Day this week (with temps right around 70). Jay, Ted, Tim and I all made it down again.  Work schedules have allowed all of us to make it for the last several weeks.

For at least the third year in a row, Jay pulled in the first catch of the year (for a Monday anyway).  We still haven't seen any helgies for bait, but he brought down some night-crawlers and snagged a sucker.  Sadly, the first catch was also the only catch of the day, but I'm sure activity will pick up over the next week or two.

We didn't make a post last week (we DID have River Day though), but I had brought down my Bocce Ball set for something different to do.  It's a bit faster paced than washer-toss and everyone seemed to enjoy it.  I had it with me again this week, and we played a few games in the rain. Those darn grapes keeping winning!

Even though the weather was mild, we kicked the fire up a bit to keep it alive during the rain.  Pallets are wonderful things.
