I know a lot of people that think the full moon negatively affects the fishing the following day, but I've fished the last 2 full moons and did average to above average! I can't really remember having a bad full moon day throughout the years!

What...no 6lber???? Thanks, you send me to Murray for a dink fest and then you go catch toads at the river!!! Yeah..that's what friends are for...to the moon Alice!!

Float tubing around the island will get you torpedoed by a wakeboarder...

Good question!
