Phhh'Heck - I knew it was the big 'O' alrighty. Just weren't gonner say so. 
I'll have to start thinking about the drive up, stay over, fish like crazy - mentality. Maybe spring will bring it....
We do drag some nasty-ass big Walleye down river - like the one in your latest avatar (lucky hat 'n all!)
Ok - so I hit parts of the lower Cutler zone, below the dam, and ran into another species - wonder if anyone knows what it is. Could it be a shad? Silver - dark back, blue dot behind gill, blue tinge on lower side. Saw a swarm of 'em, and just couldn't help but think some big predator must waiting outside the school grounds, just itching to pick up a young date for dinner.

We didn't count the minner species - like the fatheads. Not likely to catch em on a hook, but maybe in a net. Sometimes there can be a few gathered up...

I'll have to give a perch-try up deep by the dam. Hear Crappie like the steep canyon walls too. It's a fair trip, for my little tug anyway. Was a fun night trip. Might have to do that again.
