Well, the plan was for my son and I (6 yrs ), to ride our 50's to oliphant with a rod in my back pack. He is a total fishaholic. When we got to the gate, it was open. I unloaded the bikes, and then a big dump truck comes flying out. The truck stops, and the driver says to us that there will be trucks coming in and out all day, and they aren't stopping. So I obviously figured that it was a bad idea for us to go in there, just not worth the risk. I'll hit oliphant another day. So I decided to go to either burnt bridge, or the quarry. I settled on the quarry, and I brought the rod with us. My son and i took turns tossing a gold spinner for 20 mins or so. I didn't admit that part at first cause I wasn't sure if it was widely known that there was nothing there,and I'd look like silly trying there. Anyways, like I said, the water is really clear, but I did not see anything following the lure, or any rises at all on the entire quarry. So I figured there was nothing there, but I thought I would run it past the good folks here. I don't think there is anything left in there. Too bad.
We had a great day riding around in there, and we also had a lot of fun fishing there, regardless of not getting any luck.
Thanks Dave for sharing that information, that quarry has an interesting story.
