In Cotter, Arkansas

We arrived yesterday afternoon and set up camp OK before it started raining. My friend Ed showed up OK and we ate Taco Soup Sandy had prepared for supper. The weather forecast said there was 70% chance of rain today. Great! We have a guide scheduled for an all day fishing trip on the White river. I woke up at 5:00 am and it was raining. I went back to sleep. When I woke at 6:30, it had stopped raining. I thought maybe we could get a couple of hours fishing before it started raining again. We went out at 7:30 in the boat with the guide. The river water was clear, but the fishing was slow. We use only artificials, mostly Rapalas and spoons. By 3:00 we had 8 nice rainbows in the live well and had released several nice brown trout and maybe 25 other rainbows. It started drizzlng at 3:15 and we went in.

Tomorrow we are supposed to go out again. Again it is supposed to rain, 70%. Wednesday it is supposed to be sunny. No pictures today.
