Trolling Above McAlpine Dam
Launched from the Fourth Street Wharf and took my wife out above McApline Dam today. While she was drinking beer and enjoying the scenery, I was trolling off the back of the boat with the pocket fisherman that I smuggled past security...all I caught was a Jet-Skier from Indiana and a disoriented duck. It was so hot that even Chuck Norris would sweat, but I'm afraid that the caliope music was scaring the fish...and the big paddle wheel kept getting in the way of my Rooster Tail. You think getting your line caught in a trolling motor is tough...
I finally gave up, bought a soft pretzel and a beer, and listened to a bluegrass band play a horrible rendition of Margaritaville. Other than that, their bluegrass was good.
I wore my official "Team Long John's" fishing hat and everything.
Ahhhh, The Ohio River.
