I need to get out and try and catch a few. Glad the waters up, maybe they'll come on up to my old honey hole. Get them above Goose and the water will be clear.

Yea its about like a circus at tines takesa sspecial type of person to deal with it sometimes but the problem is most of those people have no idea what they're doing and just come for the tournament and will be gone after its over theres a few of us that have been fishing that section for a month or so already

Grizzly, I'm planning to fish tomorrow and through the rest of the week, but going to start out in Brookneal and work my way up. Any nice fish being caught in the past 2 weeks or mostly little bucks?
