9/29 Met my cousin Marty today down at carlyle dam spill way. Bill Kingore, Marty and my self shot 35 big heads and had 5 silvers jump into the boat. Water is Way down. The ripids below the suspension bridge is almost competely exposed no way to go down stream. The water was 70 degrees and from 3.5 feet deep to 10. Most places was running in the 7 foot range. Fish were there but extremely hard to see. You really had to know what you were looking for. Some times would just see a shadow. And they were really spooky. If they seen you they were gone. There were only a hand full of bank fishermen and one other boat who was cat fishing. Talking to this old guy who is there bout every day. He said that last week some one shot a bunch of big heads and just dumped them on the ground by the boat ramp. Another time some one put theirs in the dumpster. That kind of activity will get us thrown out quick. So please spread the word, that it is ok to slit the fish and sink them, if you cannot give them away. May be Christine can post some of the rapids pictures.
