We had a good day last Wednesday, we probably would have had a 20 plus bag.
21 caught only 3 were dinks.
The largest was a bit under 8
The weather was perfect 74 degrees.
We saw a few beds with males hanging around and a big girl close to 10 but she went the other way when I cast in her direction.
Thin 6in sinkos and texas with 5in curly tails in 2 colors. Brown with red flakes and one of Eric's custom colors

Awesome catching Paul. It looks like the pre-spawn is on. I'm sure that OBG will be glad to hear that. Thanks for the beautiful pictures.

Have not had anything to report and had to do some work on the boat to get her ready. Been anxiously waiting to get my season started. Saving my stories for the M&G. Hopefully I will have some pics soon

Good luck with your SNOW!
