• Hot day at Diascund

    Yesterday's forecast called for mid-90's at Diascund, so I got an early start.


    By the time the boat was loaded and launched, there was enough light to find my way to the first stop of the day.


    At launch time, WT was 80* and air temp was 60*--cool enough that a jacket felt good. Shortly after the sun came up, the jacket was gone and temps started climbing fast.

    The bite was slow--even early. The sun was up by the time the first one was in the boat.


    More than a few threw the hook close to the boat, but I wasn't keeping them, so didn't bother using the net...until this one (14.5"):


    That was just after 10:00 and count for the day stood at 19, with only 3 or 4 that were 10"+. A light breeze helped, but by mid-afternoon WT hit 87*, the air was 90*, and the count had increased to only 24. It was only a 10-hour day, but I'd had enough.

    Yesterday was my second and final trip for June, and Lanexa's forecast calls for 102* today, 103* tomorrow, and close to 100* until the middle of next week. Looks like July's off to a very slow start.
