I wasn't ON the water but I'll give you a report. I went out and bought a 12ft pole, big reel and threw for stripes. Did that for 2 1/2 hours and not a single hit. I got SORE arms but not from fighting fish, It was from winging that 2oz spoon and 12ft surf rod. Man my arms and shoulders are sore.
I think the river was a little too high and just a little too cold?? I'll give it a shot agian soon.
