Cool and overcast almost the entire way. Clear, low, water with the current rippin' when we first put in, but it soon slowed. Floated down river with the little one calling the shots on whether a caught fish was kept or not. Apparently to her, a bass is not a "cleaner" (worth cleaning) unless it's over 15 inches. We kept two.
She did pretty good for a four year old on a 5 1/2 hour canoe ride, just drifting along, watching the birds, watching Papa catch the occassional fish and laughing at Papa for the ones that came unstuck. Never have to argue with her about wearing her lifejacket. I was wishing I had brought her a change of dry clothes. I should have known better than not too. Although she fell in the bow a couple times, she never went overboard. Oh well, it's my own fault. She saw Papa standing to fish, so she stood. I didn't teach her get up on the seat and jump up and down though. She figured that out on her own.
I figure as soon as she does a full gainer off the highdive she'll figure it out by the time I haul her out by the collar of her PFD and get her into dry clothes. 
She's real good about sitting down when I tell her to, when if she falls she might land on something dangerous, besides just in the water.
Saw two manatees above Lower Bridge where the river necks down and becomes deeper about three this afternoon.
A little after three the sky started clearing and the mercury started noticably falling.
We also found a couple places where the bass were stacked up on the bottom that might bear further and more thorough investigation.
Mama picked us up at four at Lower Bridge after a thoroughly enjoyable day.
