Morning with Martens

We are on Aaron Martens this morning. And like yesterday he’s started in the same bend of an oxbow where a considerable amount of his bites have come this week

Yesterday he caught his first four here. Two of those came on his first two casts. Today, though, we’ve been here for 15 minutes and he’s yet to get bit.

No cause for alarm, yet. But this spot is definitely changing. The water has risen another foot at least so it’s a good bet the fish are on the move. Martens is keeping them honest throwing the flutter spoon across the sloping flat portion of the bend and following that up with shaky head.
