A half-and-half sky over the water today, with a faint NE drift with a softening glass. The productive water at Merlin Creek will be around the softer water off the main flow. Block out the hours from morning through afternoon. Cover water early, then settle where the signs are. A heavy, hot day; the coolest water wins.
