June 13, 2007
Got 4 this morning and 3 channelcats:
1-19.5"
2-16"
1-15"
3 dinks in the 13"-14" 2005 class, and 4 dinks from last years class.

Channelcats were in the 15-17" range.

I missed a bunch of fish.Lots of trips from my lone planerboard.Could have been catfish, saugeye,or crappie shortbiting my cranks?
Nothing on firetiger, Shad tore them up.

Get the Net: I saw you out there. By the time I waved at you, the fish were done, but I got all those fish within that 800 yd stretch running north-south. Last yrs HOT #4 buoy was in the middle of that area. That's where 80%+ of my fish have come from.

I think my camera is dying!
