Nice write up & great pics!  Did he catch a lot of fish on the Square Bill?

He did in practice. Not sure how many today. I didn't ask point blank, but the issue today was he had been running back until he found where the water started to clear up from the otherwise muddy water. Today, something changed and all the water was muddy. Affected his bite.

Told me on the bus he was 'running like a rabbit to the back of each channel hoping for clear water.' He just didn't find it today. He's making a long run tomorrow.

What I meant by 'He did in practice' but cameraguy didn't do a count apparently or can't remember. My impression was it was a whole bunch of bass because he described quite a few including many multiple bass spots.
