Couldn't sleep last night knowing my brother from back East was going to hammer the trout today at Magic with me. I should have known the day was going to turn out bad when I woke up late because the alarm did not go off. Luckily I woke up just 12 minutes after the planned time. Within 15 minutes my brother had the first and only trout on, but it rushed his pontoon and came off. The next six hours we were persistent, but only a small perch was brought to the pontoon. I might have had only one other strike, but it could have been a stick fish. I am going to Henry's Lake for four days on Monday, so I am not upset with today's outcome.

Bummer about Magic but you'll make it up a Henry's. I'll be at Henry's Sat-Wed so if you see me stop by and say hi. 15' Alaskan Smoker Craft with 25 yamaha, BFT sticker on the back, and the guy yelling "fish on" - that would be me [bobhappy]

That's too bad for your brother but thanks for the report anyway. I know you know the heck out of that pond so it definitely wasn't due to a lack of skill. I believe days like that get stored in the karma piggy bank and eventually we get paid back by the great days so I hope the next time he gets out he catches a toad.

Bummer! I think it is a law that if you take a guest out fishing, then the fishing will stink.
