Mostly lots of dinks and clones out there is what I been running into also Dan. Always fun to catch one a little bigger
one which often in comparison to the others seems to be even bigger than what is rally is.
Thanks for sharing and hope to see you out there soon. Tight lines always buddy

Since my home lake is closed tomorrow, I got permission from Mr. Vinny to fish his home lake today! I guess it's partly my lake since I've been fishing it since 1963...!

Dang, you had a super good.......I mean Super Great Day!
I was happy that I stopped by the lake a few times to look around and saw you out there in the distance with splashing around you. I was hoping it was just birds(just kidding!)Then later stopped by after lunch and was lucky to catch you before ...

I got on the water at 5:30. In the summer months I am not dropping the kids off at school everyday, so I do get on the water earlier albeit less frequently. They'll be seniors next year, which is hard to believe.
