The month of June came in like a lion and has remained that way as someone forgot to turn off the fan. This past week we saw steady days of 25-knot south winds, which has chilled the water down so much you’d think the fluke would have icicles hanging from their fins. Bay temperature swings have been averaging nearly 20 degrees with the tide fluctuations, which hasn’t boded well for fluke anglers. Striped bass fisherman have been getting an extra reprieve with the colder upwelling temperatures and most inlets are supporting striped bass life on the incoming tides. Ocean fluke fishing has been extremely challenging with a double-edged sword of high winds and cold water temperatures. Offshore had yellowfin beginning to show up at the Lindy and the bluefin bite has ramped up inshore. Although shark week is about two weeks away, there have been a few great white sightings, but most are juvenile sharks in the 8- to 9-foot range. Threshers are on the bunker schools, and if you can find the bunker or the bunker boats, you will find the sharks.

Cats of Kansas City

One might be wise to wait until after Independence Day to adopt one of these cats. They just don't like the noise of fireworks, which, combined with the sudden, scary changes of a new home might not make for a great start. Come Friday, the 5th though, go and grab up one of these terrific cats, all available from local, Kansas City shelters.

I grew up in a large family in Virginia just like the Waltons. Many people watched and enjoyed the historical drama television series The Waltons, which was about a family in rural Virginia during the Great Depression and World War II. The series aired on television nine seasons and 221 episodes from 1972 to 1981 and is still in reruns.
