Wanted to get a few hours in today before my boat weny into the shop for some work. Only caught one dink and lost one small one. Think the rain the night before plus all of the frontal activity going on shut my hot bite down.

Awesome day on the Appomattox today considering it was very cold and really windy. Caught 8 bass, biggest going around 4 pounds and several in the 2 - 3 range. Actually had probably 20 - 30 bites but the wind was just so bad it made it hard to get good hook ups. Anyway glad I froze my butt off it was worth it. Oh yeah, I know they proably won;t see it but want to say thanks to the 3 guys that helped me get my boat off of the bar. Really extreme low tide today caught me in it's arms, ughhhhh...

Shad and Bream
Took a buddy to try and catch some cats today. Could not even catch bait. Looked everywhere and could not find any good concentrations of bait to catch with my cast net. Only managed four small shad and bream and did not catch anything on them.

Caught only three today. I used to live on the river in the Fall and the fishing was exceptional then. For the last two years its less then desirable. I was told that the fishing would be back this Fall, but you can't prove it by me.
