Original plan was to bumb around on the North Branch but for whatever reason it is running very cloudy. Didn't want to take the time to find out where all the mud was coming from since it was a long float planned and time was getting on. Since Luke and I were already at the confluence we side stepped over to the South Branch, that was running nice and clear.
Launched at Blackpoint Road and the township redid the parking area so it's not all mud and deep ruts, instead it was nicely graded lot and stones were put in.
Did our float thing, Luke got a few nice SMB just under photo worthy, I stunk it up and got nothing. No Keitechs=No Bass for me
(since I'm such a hack at SMB fishing)
Large carp were very prevalent through the entire river, so much so Luke snagged one by accident. Saw some carp that looked to be pushing 25 pounds !
All in all not bad, I'm just not a summer heat kind of fisherman, think I went swimming 20 times today. Saw 2 Bald Eagles in the "fishy" spots, find the eagles, find the fish.
Also, I expect to see dead trout floating by, have never seen it during a summer on the lower South Branch yet.
