Congrats on the bull! Carbondale is one of my favorite rivers too. I was also on the river this weekend and the water level was way down and all the fish were already clustered into the deep holes. The whites looked like they were getting ready to spawn as well as they are barely interested in anything I offered. I didn't get a chance to fish the Castle, was it similar there?
