Holy crap, Batman, those are some fish! Congrats. It sounds like you do that on a regular basis. [

The older I get the more I would rather be considered a good man than a good fisherman.

Man those are some nice Macs. Thanks for sharing. Will look for your Facebook page and check out your gear. If my bride asks just remind her about the agreement to keep the her shoe and my tackle purchases equal and I will live to try them

Great report, man I can't believe there are so many big Macs down there, that lake didn't seem that big to me, but it has sure grown some nice looking fish... Thanks for sharing a fun report... Later J

It looks like you have taken the old Heddon Lucky13 style and enlarged and made it jointed !! The old paddle boarders swore by the "wooden" Lucky13's, would not use the plastic ones. Good catching there !! Have you tried those up to the Gorge at all??
