You ever try to fish for carp in there during the mulberry “hatch?”

Na, never like carp fishing, large & small mouth bass, cats, brim, walleye use to get some ell.

They're not my main cup of tea either. But there's a neat phenomenon in the canal where they eat ripe, fallen mulberries off the surface of the water in areas where the trees are nearby (particularly just NW of Georgetown). One can make a little purple ball as a dry "fly" and go catch 'em from the surface. Worth trying once for anyone with fly tackle.

I did one. 22 pounder. Had one Hell of a fight. A lot of guys like to arrow them. I grew up in Cabin John. So I know the river and C&O well.

That sounds like fun! I'm in.

There is a spot just North of Pennyfield lock, where the carp are thick as thieves. If you want to get a small group to fish the C&O let me know.

pulled pork for the big ol coed baby shower pool party this afternoon. roughly the 10.5 hr mark. few more hours to go.

woke up needing to do lots of shuffling around due to temperature differentials. clearly they also ended up mostly shoved to the right.

what people experiences with temperature differentials and pellet grills? mines a somewhat older pit boss pro series. may be looking to upgrade and am thinking about finding pellet grills that are more even keeled on temp, especially on that bottom rack.

Nearby farmer is starting to mob graze his cattle. I understand he used to play pro basketball and doing a good job priming the economy and fixing up his property.

Summer time in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. If you get up early enough to avoid the crowds it's a beautiful place.

Crowds and the humidity. Really is beautiful country!

My locust trees are doing well. The gramma is up and going. Hot today and hoping for a afternoon shower.

Father in law asked if I wanted to go fishing this morning. I wanted to get some stuff done, so he took my son along with a family friend. Shoulda went, 25, 12, and 4# flatheads, 2 blues around 20, and 1 5# channel.

They kept the 2 big flatheads.

A buddy of mine called and said another friend of his got the ranch Jeep stuck while taking his son for a ride yesterday.
I went out today and we decided that I would pull it back while he lifted the front with the backhoe. I told him to make sure he stayed up with the pull. As the tow strap (not a chain) stretched it acted like an elastic band. When the Jeep popped up out of the washout the lifting chain couldn't keep up with the sudden movement raising the front of the Jeep straight up.

It all ended ok as it emptied out all the spent casings from the floorboards.

I have this sinking feeling I should look into one of those fancy phone scopes or Mag view systems…

From our deck on Kolob mountain, Utah. Cedar Breaks is getting a good bit of rain.

My wife is in St. George at the Tuacahn Theater tonight to see Joseph and the Technicolor Dream Coat. This photo is from her hotel room on the plateau near the old airport overlooking the city.
