Hot... Very hot and windy. We died out there but tried to make the best of it. It's been about 10 years since I fished the lake and I wasn't that impressed. Caught a bunch of sunnies, a couple of perch and a bass. Threw lots of stuff out there... maybe we should of gave it more of a chance, but I gotta tell ya, we lasted until about 3pm and had to get off the lake. It was just too hot.
On a side note, a guy at the ramp asked if we would take him out and look for a cooler he had lost the day before when he dumped his sailboat. I thought there was no way we would find it, but sure enough, there is was washed up on shore knocking against some rocks. The guy was lucky. He had a spare set of keys for his truck in it along with a bunch of other stuff and it would have cost him a hundred to replace them. He offered us a twenty, but what the heck... we told him to pay it forward.
Our tradition is that of the first man who sneaked away to the creek when the tribe did not really need fish. ~ Roderick Haig-Brown, about modern fishing, A River Never Sleeps, 1946
