<br /> Slipped off for a quick trip this evening before the storm hit. Had some engine trouble while getting to the first spot so we just worked it while there. Nothing in the first two holes at all, next hole ...empty again. Tried one more and bingo, fish home. I knew it was small, but I wanted it out anyway. It took a good 30 minutes and I laid hands on this fish at least 6 times before I finally got ahold if it by the tail....yup, and drug it out backwards! LOL I told you I wanted it out! Turned out to be a small channel about 7 lbs. Be fore leaving i checked the hole one more time, and discovered a second fish! I finally got that one out about 10 minutes later, another smallish 4-5lb channel. We went to head off, and couldn&#39;t get the motor to start, so hitched a ride with some nearby fisherman, and then loaded up right when the storm hit with a vengeance. Still made a good memory with the boy. <br />
