<br /> Went to the same area I went yesterday around 9 or so this morning and noticed birds really active far back in that cove. I Idled back and started casting a JB and one nailed it and it was on. Between the wind, the fish and trolling motor my hands were full. Finally, I landed it and it was my personal best 23lbs 7oz. After a few pics and a mangled thumb and started chunking the rig and another one nailed me, it weighed over 17lbs. emoDance . I couldn&#39;t believe how shallow these fish were. They were in 6 to 10 FOW. That was about all the excitement for the day, except for a couple of whites and 2 small LM. <br /> The 1st and 2nd pic is the same fish, I just wanted to show how fat it was. Also have a lot of Striper poop emoVomit to clean off my back deck of boat.
