I decided to go fishing this afternoon when I woke up from my nap. It looked like it was going to rain and rain it did. Only once I was under the 82 bridge did it start. I was given a rain jacket for my birthday and brought it with me. I also waterproofed my boots the other day and now was the best time to see if I did it correctly. The rain was light at first then kept going away and coming back. That didn't stop me from fishing. When I arrived under the bridge I saw the current was moving pretty fast and knew this would be a problem. I did some scouting before I set up under the bridge. I knew the water would cause me problems and once my bait it the water that became true. The water took my bait down river even with the weight a had on the line. Cast after cast I wound loose my boilie and would have to tie on another. After about 5 cast of the bait not staying still I packed up and tried the creek next to it. I knew there were carp in this section from seeing them last year. The water level was low and made it hard to find a spot. I set up my bait and kept moving it every so often. The rain kept coming back, worse each time, but my rain jacket kept me dry. My boots also stayed dry the whole time and that also kept me from leaving. It wasn't long till I was bored and decided to leave. And like clockwork the second I take my bait out of the water I see a nice size carp swim out from the deeper water...
TL;DRWent under the 82 bridge in the rain, lost boilies, stayed dry, didn't catch anything.
