Also saw Tincan there too, good seeing and talking to you as well Forest. Ira and I headed toward the feed lot, trolling lures at 1.5 mph. After a few minutes we started catching those smaller wipers, 12 to 14 inchers. We used side planners and straight out the back and caught they with both methods. After catching and releasing 20 of those little feisty fighters, we decided to head over to where Pat was fishing and see how he was doing. He was doing good there for cats, so we decided to give it a try. We could not seems to find any active cats there, so we decided to head toward the island and finally started to pick up a few cats, at 1:30 we called it quits, with 3 or 4 cats up to 23". Good day on the water, hardly any boats out there today.
Those little Wipers sure are fun, what lures where you guys trolling and how long where your set backs?
