Fished hard today. Only caught two small catfish.. Thats the way it goes some days. Better luck next time. Lots of boats on the river. The sunken barge/crane/junk back near the spray pits is on a slow fire. Smoke and heat are coming from it. I dont really get it, as there is nothing on there that could burn. My girlfriend thinks homeless people are living on it but she has a vivid imagination. I fished under it.Caught one fish. Tide was low. Tricky getting back in there. Polarized sun glasses helped alot. Bill
