It rained pretty hard last night for a couple of hours and
the rivers have come up, but are still clear. The bite was definitely off
today, however, as Peacocks were far and few between.
We did get on a few schools of Arwana though and managed to
get a few to the boat. They are a weird fish with hardly a tail and swim more
like a snake than a fish. They eat a dry
fly readily though, so it was cool to watch. Honestly, they followed the fly
for a while, trying to figure out how to get it into their mouths. Their mouths
are angled upwards and they did not seem to be well adjusted for eating what
they wanted to!
Saw a ton of wildlife today including Cayman, Dolphins, and
a pack of Otters. I think the otters were destroying one of the Arwana schools
we had gotten on earlier. They were running across the sandbars chasing the
crap out of fish and working hard. Tons and tons of birds in this place.
It is hotter than a humid hell though. One of the best parts
of the day is moving in between spots for sure.
Thought of many things today, but mostly thought of nothing.
Nothing on the mind is the perfect subject for me.
