I would describe the fishing success Tuesday night as a shakey O.K. tlspyder may want to comment as well as he was also there. I know he caught one littleish crappie. The kids in my group didn't last long, a few casts, then the wind started blowing and they got cold and left. One kid had his bobber go under a few times but never got it hooked. I did have one kid (who has had a pretty hard time catching fish this year, so this was pretty cool) throw out a 2 hook rig and caught two bluegill on a single cast. That was pretty exciting for him. Anyway, success was pretty spotty, I would say that maybe 25-35% of the kids caught fish. The wind really didn't help--neither did the fact that everywhere there was even a little tiny bit of brush, somone was camped out in a lawn chair fishing (not that I blame them). Anyway, that's what went down.--Jim
