Alright....all the old men say i should do this so i'm gonna....

It's 65+ degrees here today, and since we have an hour more of daylight i'm going to the melvin price locks & dam to see what i can wrestle out of the backwaters...never been to the locks, but like i said...every old mississippi fisherman i know says it is the money....

I'll check back in tonight with photos.....hopefully

Or i will hang my head in shame....

(edit.....any advice on fishing a big, muddy mess of turbulent water would be much appreciated....this is way out of my comfort-zone of ponds & lakes w/ clear water....)

The fish would stay out of trouble if it could just keep its fool mouth shut.
Turns out there is a lot I should be learning from the fish.
