Magic was slow for my buddy Rob and I. Although Rob out-fished me at least two to one, maybe more. Neither of us ever even got a bite we thought was a trout. The perch were biting light at first and it got worse as the day went on. Still, I made it home with about 10 or 12 8"-10" perch. Since the fishing was slow, I took some time out to really test the fish finder I borrowed from a friend. Using the side finder and pacing off the distance, we pinpointed some fish and drilled a hole. Once we got in the right spot, it was fish after fish for about 10 minutes, then they were gone. I need to work with it some more, but I can see a lot of promise.[
