Apparently the April showers were a bit delayed around Cincinnati this year, soaking the May flowers with a steady rainfall lasting multiple days. The constant pitter-patter of the raindrops upon the surface of the Ohio River can be felt all the way to the depths of the mudbottoms 60 feet below by the hyperdeveloped sonar instincts of the gigantic blue catfish. Like a soothing melody, the soft ceaseless vibration of the overwater precipitation is surely swaying the eyes of the monster shut, as if rocking a baby to sleep. A 30-foot sea-baby.
So if you're bored tonight, all slept out and feeling frisky, it might be a good chance to poncho up and head out on the river. Sit back, rock some lullabies from your boat, and see if you can't happen upon evidence of a sleeping giant catching some sweet Springtime Z's far below, a seabeast dreaming it can fly.
