Met up with some guys I met on http://alabamariverfishing.net/ and did a 8 hour float out in the Wood Stock area. It was nice meeting some new guys who share the same passion for fishing that I do. I will say that it was a great trip except for one incident where I hit a rock and the water flipped me over it. I lost my Fly Rod and a Box with a lot of tackle in it. Here are the pics from the trip.














This was my biggest fish of the day. Fat spot that fought really hard and made a good run when I got him close to the boat. Caught him on a spinner bait. There were a ton of Gar lined up on this shallow shoal. They were racing upstream and would come out of the water and wriggle around. It was really amazing to watch. We also saw a Bald Eagle, the only one I have ever seen in central Alabama. All in all we had a wonderful day. Fishing slowed down when it got really hot but they were very active right behind the shoals. We caught close to 60-70 fish that day, I had 11 myself.
