Finaly got a chance to go fishin this past weekend and it was'nt good .Went to my usaul spot full of people so I been scopin this place on the Ohio river close to the terminal in Marietta so I head down there and it was worse so I had to find another spot finally went to old lock 17 or something like that started fishin not a bite one using goldfish, bluegills ,israili carp ,chicken liver, worms nothing worked only thing caught was snags lol . SO from now on when I go to the big river the boat will be behind me . The mayflies was so bad down there that I was covered with them looked like the mothman never seen so many but the ones that hit the water was getting eatin by bass scoupping them up lol so hopefully next trip Ill catch something

Let me make your trip sound a little better.
We fished a river yesterday and got on the water at 5pm. All was well at first. The fish werent biting and we anchored in a dozen different spots just to catch 2 channel cats under 2lbs. Fished for flatheads until 1am. On the way back we realized the water had dropped 1foot and a half. The riffle that we walked the boat up at 6pm was now a rock bar. We had to unload the boat just to get it over the rocks. 2 batteries, 2 anchors, a five gallon bucket of bait, tackle etc. After that was all out my giirlfriend and i drug the boat in five foot increments until we got the boat in deep enough water to walk the boat through.
Got to the boat ramp and i had amanda hook the boat to the winch, she stepped on the trailer fender and broke a weld on the fender. I then winched the boat up and the five gallon of bait tipped over, so we now have 30 pieces of bait in the bottom of
the boat, half of which are bullheads. I quickly winch the boat up tight and as soon as i let go of the handle on the winch it backspins and gets my hand.
It was just one of those trips where everything went wrong.....last nght i swore i wasnt fishing for a week.....woke up today and made plansto fish tomorrow evening.
As Pip said bad trips make the good trip even better.

Glad you got out bro! Don't feel bad, last trip I made to the Ohio River we broke down, and spent the rest of the night getting pulled back to the ramp. Guess bad luck is bound to happen sooner or later for all of us! rollo
