red spot marks furthest penetration yet
white film everywhere
Weather was a little snotty but I still got in a 2-hour paddle. VERY high tide tempted me to search out the Lost Lagoon, but I was thwarted by brush I'd need to portage past. I was motivated but not THAT motivated. Decided instead to test the white perch and sure 'nough, they were plenty cooperative. Strictly catch and release this time. I think the river is beautiful in this kind of weather. It is certainly less populated, at least for this time of year.
Tried to figure out where the white specks were coming from. There were hundreds and hundreds of yards of it, piled up for the most part on weather shores of the creek. My final guess is it's blow-off from the cordgrass lining the back of this part of the creek. Who knows....
