Brisk morning on the Riverpark fishing dock. Water level low and still when I arrived at 7am. Saw Norman throwing a net for shad. Said he was hunting 3-4in. I was catching 1.5-2.5 all around the dock. Nothing biting first hour. At 8am right on the dot, alarm sounded, and began running at full. Water probably rose 5-6 ft in 5 minutes. Pretty impressive. Water turned murky and muddy for the first bit, and then got clean again. That was about the time I dropped a 2.5in gizzard and hooked a 28in Drum off the left side of the dock. Nice surprise as always.<br /><br />Couldn&#39;t get another bite until I walked to the right side of the dock and tossed a 2in shad and caught a 1.5lb LM. Very pleased to pull that one up. No picture.<br /><br />All in all, pretty morning out there, and always good to be fishing!<br /><br />Hope you had a good morning Norman.
