ALS tried fishing just above the Gap Friday night for eyes and the weeds were insane. Couldn't retrieve your lure without immediately being covered up. Wasn't sure if it was a release further up river or just run off from rain upstate. Had the same situation a few years back trying to fish for flatheads with Chrisper, the amount of weeds was off the charts. Not knowing where you fished but kudos for landing four and missing a few others. I switched from jointed rapalas to a keitech as well and had the same problem. It was literally unfishable where I was.

Anyone have any idea what happened, were there bad storms up north? Water quality looked decent and the river level seemed normal so not sure what the cause was. Saw a few black bear and decided it was best to head home as opposed to try exploring new water at night.
