So we got on the water at 8am. The water was rolling pretty good but not quite white cap. We set up on the south side of the island where we had fast action the other day. We fished under bobbers for about 1 hour 30 minutes and managed about 7 cats. It wasn’t real fast but with the waves we figured it was decent amount. We moved to the north side and fished on the bottom to try things a little different. We caught 9 more cats, 1 carp, 1 white bass, and lost about 7 rigs to the rock monsters. But for 3 hours my kids hardly fought and my handicapped son reeled in 8 cats and the carp so he was the winner today and was smiling from ear to ear so it made for a great day. We left at 1145.

Violet and I just missed you. When we got to the ramp and didn't see Jim's trailer I thought you had not gone out this morning.

We ended up staying longer than planed, but I am glad we did. I got a bumper.

I saw violets report I’m so happy for you that’s awesome. I was hoping to run into you but I figured you guys must have been fishing machines out there. Did the waves bother you? They made it difficult to keep our balance and keeping a bobber in place was a no go hence reason we went to the bottom.
