East tide, breaking deer
Figured the fishing was over this morning but on my bike ride back to the truck on the canal I saw birds working around 8 am, so I went over to investigate and saw them following a deer swimming across the canal in a strong current. Got out and went up rocks 20 feet from me. It was exhausted. Seen many deer over the years on the canal but never seen one swim the ditch in broad daylight. Glad I went over cause next cast I got a 40" fish which was the only one I could muster today.
