On Saturday, 21 June, our guests enjoyed a warm day, with cooling breezes, as well as cooperative Smallmouth Bass and plenty of Fallfish. Saturday night we had severe weather move into the area, downing large trees and powerlines, with Sunday, 22 June, devoted primarily to area clean-up efforts and recovery of services. As such, we had no guests on the run Sunday. Today, 23 June, we also did not have any guests on the run, probably due to the 88 degrees high and heat index North of 100 degrees. The forecast for tomorrow is: "Except for a few afternoon clouds, mainly sunny. A stray shower or thunderstorm is possible. High 86F. Winds W at 5 to 10 mph."
