Default Opening day on the Dan

Got up at 4:30 am and checked the weather. Decided to head on up, and glad I did. Took Zach to the Dan River and had a great morning (despite the rain). Fished with crappie minnows and had my limit by 8:30 including throwing back several. Zach had his limit by 9:45 so we headed up to see my grandpa and take him out to lunch. Biggest was 17" and 2 1/2 lbs. Two others at a pound and a half. This was Zach's 1st limit he caught totally by himself. Trout have been the only fish to give him a problem, but he got on 'em today. Suprisingly the water was up a little but not stained at all. All the feeder creeks we crossed as we were leaving were muddying up pretty good so I'm sure the Dan will too. Got to see several turkeys strutting out in the middle of several fields on our way out too.
