Sunrises, like fishing, are kind of like a "don't know until you go" kind of thing. If you wait, or are delayed, you will miss it. It's kind of like waiting in a movie theatre waiting for the movie to start. First there's first light, then the sun breaks the horizon, then it's up in the sky. It all goes down pretty quickly.
As I watched light arrive I scanned the horizon looking for signs of fish life. Bunker, river herring, anything flipping or moving near the surface would have been seen easily as the water this morning was flat and the visibility clear for miles upon miles. Soon, hopefully, we'll see those signs of bait fish, followed by the blow ups caused by the bass and blues crashing the bait.
Either way it's a great way to start the day....
