Had the day off. Went to kill a few hours. Water is a little high but pretty clear still. Fishing was not bad as well.Landed 5 fish.... A few pictures from this morning.One fish had some white marking on its back. Not sure if this is how a wounded fish heals or if its sick.....Just thought i would give an update.

Cheers.

Nice pics, that looks like some kind of fungus on that poor fishs back.

There are two osprey nests within 500 yards of the location of the last pic, as well as a large structure to try and encourage eagles to nest in the area again. Chances are it was a bird of prey.

Yes you could be right. I did see one eating on top of a power pole. And someone taking pictures of it.

Are you catching these close to the city? If so I never knew there were that many fish that close to cowtown.

That is a nice section of the river. I was skunked the only time I went there but you could tell there would be fish in there. I was fly fishing and was having a hard time with the presentation with the high banks and faster water. My friends were saying they caught pike in that hole in your fourth picture.
