It has been just under 8 weeks and yes I made it to the Yough. If you never fished a week day you should. I wasn't in a hurry today, after all being off work means you can take your time. I got to the lake at around 9:30. Parking lot had about 7 other boats on the lake. I saw that Steiny was there today. We actualy met on the lake later in the day and had a nice talk. The blue Nitro still looks great.
Well right from the start my right hand gave me problems. Carpal tunnel surgery sucks. No way I could use a bait caster. I had to develop a new style of casting. I could not cast with my right hand. I could do a lot with my right hand, it hurt too much.
With that said the water was a little low. The water was just above the little turn out on the ramp at the breast. Boat traffice was light. There were a ot of fisherman.
I caught just three small bas today. Lol, you know I really couldn't fish. I caught them on a crawdad soft bait flipping on logs that were sticking up. I struggled to reel them in, again my right hand was killing me.
Maybe in another week I can actually do some fishing. I just struggled with my hand today.
