Thanks for the report I will be out there later in the week if the weather holds.

Headed out into the openness dropped in and Obi then Randy hooked up on eyes for a double, a bit later another eye and a perch came aboard. We were thinking that this may be a quick morning but the Scrooge showed up and made us cover a lot of water to pick up 1 more eye, 2 more perch and a wiper. Water temp was 68, pulled cranks most of the day although Randy and Obi both drowned a couple worms on bottom bouncers with no love. Blue and silver was probably the best color for action but other colors produced a fish here and there. Good seeing and chatting with Curt and Ira out there, fun day with my crew. Oh I did put on a pair of downriggers to see if that helped with getting the cranks down, which it did but they only produced the wiper.

I found a fillet knife at the South marina fish cleaning station, if someone left one there today, send me a PM and tell me what kind it is and I'll get it back to you.

Shawn has put on a challenge for Us on Friday. He thinks because he is constantly turning, he catches more.

Owe, and that TM blue gill, i did replace the front treble with a red one. Way Back when I earned my moniker fast_randy I used to do that with liples rattel traps. I swear it helps.

Thanks for hosting, it is always a good time on your boat, I'll be on the Bay the next three days, putting to use what I learned today with you guys.

I was at the south marina this morning at 5:45 and the gate was closed. Looks like it's automatic but we went to the north marina and it was open but it was 6:01 by then so it may have opened automatically right at 6:00 before we got there. Only one boat there when we got in.
