We had a great opening day and we didn't even fish! We had a nice, leisurely morning, played with the dogs, talked with the other campers and took care of personal business.
We took a little walk along the river to see what everyone was doing and we saw what we expected to see. LOTS of fishermen trying to catch fish. Some were catching fish and some not.
There were worm dunkers and fly flingers. They were lined up elbow to elbow, squeezing out each other, vying for the best spot. A group of 8 directly downstream, another 10 spread out upstream, and another 8 or so right in front of us. I'd say most were from far away, not locals.
We witnessed the first, but guaranteed not the last, argument between fishermen about river etiquette. A verbal fight I think only because there was a small amount of deep water separating them. Really too bad there were a few young children who witnessed the name calling and swearing. But like I said, we had a great opening day because we did not fish the frenzy.
