Gonefishn, a buddy and I went to Rockport this morning/afternoon. Got on the water around 6:45 and the bites started right away. We lost the first couple fish just behind the boat then started to boat some rainbows. We were trolling rapalas for most of the day, then started casting along the rocks on the east side of the lake. Gonefishn caught a nice 19" Brown off of a rapala and I hooked into a Dandy of a Smallie that was 16 3/4" and weighed in at 2 lb 9 oz. on the new digital scale. Caught her off of a Crawdad Rattletrap. She slammed it like a sledgehammer though, good fight!!! All in All another great day on the water. Water temp was 50 in the morning and 57 when we got off the water at 2:00. We ended up boating 7 Rainbows, 1 Brownie, and 1 Smallie!!! Rainbows were 13" to 16" and pretty fat. All fish were released! As I always say better than a day at work that is for sure. Hope the pictures turn out.
