Hi Folks,
Tubedude and I hit the south marina yesterday just because. We arrived bout 6ish and was on the water shortly there after. Last time out I had issues with what I thought was my battery. Turns out it was my motor. My battery nor Pats could get it to work. So today I picked up a 40lb thrust Minkota for $165.00 at Sportsmans. Money well spent. Got it home hooked up to my battery and it worked just fine.
So I was in for a day of old school kicking. Handled it with no problem which surprised me. But of course there was no wind to speak of and water was fairly flat. Boats were able to launch. I thing the middle of the channel was around 2 ft. All fish caught were in 5 to 10 feet of water. Pearch meat was the ticket that day. I kept 2 cookie cutter size cats and Pat had several much larger. I released several 12 in and under. Here is a sampling. Thanks Pat for another fun day.
