TOLEDO BEND, La–Hello, Anglers. With the new school year in session for most schools, fishing pressure and boating activity has slowed considerably. I fished three days last week on Toledo and two on Rayburn and that fact was evident. It was really a fun week even though the weather was extremely hot. Mid-August is not what I would call prime fishing season but bass did bite pretty well even though it did take adjustments and down-right work. I get very little sympathy when I stark talking about how much work there can be when one fishes for a living so I want even go there
