Back! Skunked again!! I really need to take a long hard look at my tackle box. Fished around Lock 22 and Lock 19 but didn't really get to do much in between those two. The river was running high and fast. Lost a couple of jig heads to the rocks, and had a bunch of little guys nibbling on my 4" grubs, but not a single fish landed. The main issue I found was that most of my soft plastics were floating due to the fast running water, instead of settling down through the water coloumn. I wasn't really getting down to the fish.

The little old lady next to me at Lock 19 though, tiny fish after tiny fish on a small split shot weighted live bait hook and live worms.

Yes, I did see a lot of carp activity at the locks, but not really allowed to cast in there.

I'll definitely head back there someday and fish the banks where possible along Water street.
