East wind again today, but all morning, all day.....unlike yesterday, when the wind gave us the morning.
As alot of you know, "When the wind is from the East, the fish bite the least". So we grinded out 6 fish and let one go.
Shaun’s Guide Service offers personal guided trips for up to 6 people. We have been fishing for 35 years and know how to catch! For more information visit our website or give us a call at (530) 802-4484.
