fished mad river on the 25th, it was super overcast. didn’t catch much, just a few small perch. i guess the fish were hiding? still nice to be out with friends, had a good time just relaxing by the water.

hit the river today, it was overcast and chill. brought my fly rod, tried some dry flies but not much action. ended up switching to a jig and got a couple of 1.5lb bass. not my best day but still great to be out!
