So, I’m taking the day off Friday to try to catch some shad at Weldon.  I may tie a few flies tomorrow evening, but I checked my boxes and I’m better stocked than I thought.  I’ve got several of the pink ones that worked very well historically.  I am looking forward to trying my one-man pontoon boat (a Creek Company ODC 816).  I need to find an anchor, but I think I’ve got a sash weight in the garage somewhere.  Hope to post a trip report this weekend!
