Smells ALOT better than it taste,found out short boots leek. Day two,forecast is for high winds raining real hard,checked early to beat the wind,only caught three very little action so it was a quick check flats are still froze over, with today’s rise in water it should help, found out different pair of short boots leek.im headed to town.
