I do throw alot of jigs out here, that one was caught trolling at night, It was a great june full moon, we probably boated 30+ eyes that night, biggest was her 23 and my 29, most 15 -.  There are big ones in there, still finding all the best places and times to hit them,  we was trolling in 5 to 15 ft, pulling cranks, running shallow in the dark is pretty stressful running that close to the bank.

That's good to know you can catch them there, trolling cranks and I hear you about trolling that shallow, especially at night. How many hours did you troll that night, to catch 30 plus eyes?

started about 6 that night,  hottest hour before and after dark, It slowed down about 2:30 so we left, got home about 4 in the morning, fun fishing in the full moon.

That sounds like a long night, 8.5 hours on the water, hope the mosquitoes weren't too bad.

When fishin is good its hard to leave and time flies by,  paid for it the next day, WORTH it, No skeeters, nats tones of nats, had to use red lights, stern light was a swarm, wore head nets. had to vacuum the boat out of dead nats,  the next day.

The nats sounds like Willard but it's like that during the day there, at least during the Summer months, the days aren't bad for skeeters but the night can get real bad, especially when retrieving the boat. I know what you mean about time flying when your having fun. Does your wife fish with you? I notices you said she or her 23 what her biggest.

Girl friend for now, but ya she goes with, not to hard to convince here on my silly fishing ideas, some pan out others are just boat rides with poles,

OK, always good to have someone to fish with, wish my wife would fish with me, not many lady folks that like to go fishing, IMO.

Did you see Outdoors with Adam Eakle over the weekend? They were fishing Red Fleet, catching wiper, bass, bluegill and crappie, said there was some walleye in there as well. Guess the state park just reopened, looks like a great fishery. You ever fished there?
