Notes

River was on temporary standstill with no rise or fall. But water had been steadly dropping all week.

All fish caught behind mid-river ledge rock, which is one good place in falling water. THe tail -end of eddies should have held smallies also.

One caught dragging bottom, other two on crank behind ledge rock
