Hey Bank Pounder,

I actually stopped by that spot a couple weeks ago (when it rained on me). Didn't have any luck though, weather was too rough. Do you ever fish the next bridge to the West. You know, the one on "S" where the handicap access is? It looked pretty good to me, but it's still a little tight...
I took a little page out of your book when I was at the bridge after you turn left at the stop sign though...Had my little humminbird smartcast, and was checking out the bottom structure...have you ever figured out what that is on the bottom when you're on the South side of that bridge. I kept getting a reading like there was a shelf there or something, with a couple fish under it...do you get the same result? If you're not sure what I'm talking about, when you're at the bridge on the South side and you're looking towards the water...you go about 10-15 yards to your left...once you're there...about 15-20 feet out is where I was seeing that shelf...Are my batteries low, or am I really seeing that? If that shelf is really there, I figure I'd let my bait drift right under it, and see what happens...If I'm on crack and have just rambled on for nothing, please ignore this post...but, if I'm right...please let me know so I can put my mind at ease...I keep visualizing that spot in my sleep...hahahaha...

Oh, by the way...the wife didn't let me out the other night...so, I wasn't able to make it..."The Man" doesn't trip on you for fishing the aqueduct at night, right? Just checking, I don't want to end up getting busted. I guess I'm too used to the lower lake at Castaic...I guess I've spent too many long nights out there under the stars...I've gotten so used to fishing at night (and sometimes tubing)...I end up wanting to fish anywhere at night.

Well...that's enough out of me...sorry for unloading thoughts 'n questions that've been stewing for a few weeks now...


Tight lines 'n bent rods to all!!!
