Dudleys Diary

down to the river and paddled up to his favorite creek and fished for several hours. He caught several sunfish and hooked a few bass but they both managed to get off before he could get them in for photos. He caught the sunfish on his ultra light spinning outfit and his ultra light fly rod. He had a good time and caught a few fish. He has yet to see anyone else fishing on this section of the creek. It is located in a gated country club community and is surrounded by high dollar homes. There are a lot of fish back in there, you just have to expend a little effort to get to them. The best section of the creek is a few miles upstream. Frank caught a lot of fish there last summer. Since that time, the city put up a wire barricade that prevents being able to drive down to the creek to launch ones kayak. Frank thinks he may have found away around the fence and it would not surprise Dudley if he is back fishing in his favorite spot on the creek before too long. Dudley woke up around 6 AM this morning which is way too early for someone who is retired but that is the way it is most of the time. With Dudleys sleep disorder and breathing problems, it is difficult to get a good nights sleep. Dudley hopes to hear the UPS truck pulling up in front of the house today. His new barrel and extended tactical choke should be arriving today!
