Stayed in the river near Folly Bar and found some sheepies working between two high points on one bar. Tide was falling taking water between these two high points at a pretty brisk pace.
Sheepies were up on top of this bar working so hard their backs were out of the water.
At first I thought it was tailing reds.
Free-lined a scrimp with the tidal flow and C&Rd a few nice ones to 17in.
No luck on trout or reds.
"Let her eat" on the way back to the fort. It had started raining.
Stopped to fish an old abandoned dock near marker 46. I call it "Tower Dock" on my GPS. Be careful around there -- several underwater pilings and creosote 'lay-downs' I had to go in there to get my DOA which was hung-up on an underwater piling and it looked scary.
Didn't get a water temp reading out there - forgot.
