I spent one summer week fishing my local spillway - every morning for 7 days straight rain or shine. Summer spillway fishing can be really unpredictable so at first my expectations were low. However, I quickly realized that one of my favorite species was stacked in the spillway and ridiculousness ensued. This is part 2 of a 3 part series that changed the way I think about one of my favorite fish species and spillway fishing in general.
