Went to sleep at 2:50 left the house at 4:45 with hardly any sleep. Kinda windy for topwater but my buddy caught about 10 and i caught 4 top water. none very big. went to start crackin and did pretty good. I threw a jig and caught most on the jig. we kept a total count on the day. My buddy caught 33 and i caught 72. Not bad a 100+ fish by 1000. Mayby 10 over 12 inches. Wind picked up and died back down. headin out in a bit for some perch and playin in the water on my boat with the kidz.

carp tourney out there now and a bass tourney. the lake is full today.

You should've been in the bass tourney, you might've kicked butt.

Glad CJ gave you a great day. Gotta love them jigs!!!

I tried to head back out about 1 with the fam and the fam was slow to get ready. I should have took a nap but did not. we headed back out and got to the lake about 330. i fished for about 30 minutes and caught 3 good perch and hooked into two more and lost them by the boat. we had a 7 people and three dogs on the boat it was a full boat and noone fished but me. so we played on the lake the rest of the night. Kids had a blast but i wanted to fish more but i was trying to be a good dad and boat host. I will wish another day.
