    So, I’ve got a buddy from Wisconsin…….and we finally went fishing last night…….and here’s the REPORT

    I started the night off right with a fish in the boat by 8:15pm. I was actually waiting on my buddy to get to the landing, so I just set up on the tip of a wingdam (Thanks Matt ) right across from the boat landing while I waited. Threw out one rod with a bullie on it, and within 5 mins it was bending over .

    19# before it even got dark

    My WI buddy showed up around 8:30 with his bait and we headed out to the next spot…..as we pull up on the closing dam cut spot ( ) we’re greeted by a friendly (or maybe not so friendly) beaver that was not thrilled with our presence. Now, I had read how fish are supposed to get shut off when a beaver is making rucus…but we stayed anyway……GOOD DECSION!!! My buddy haul’s in fish #2 at around 9:15…….on one of his sunfish none the less

    21#’s of pure flathead

    Unfortunatly the evening went downhill from there……the honey hole didn’t even produce a run last night (although the current has dropped to practically nothing there now )……At 11:30pm my spot light blew up so we called her a night.

    Sorry about the big pics

    Jake…are you giving up your Zumbro guide service for catfish guide service?

    Tell your buddy he’ll catch more and bigger fish if his hats o the right way…

    Thanks for sharing…I haven’t seen a cat that size for a while now!

    I might have too……Then again, I don’t want the cotton wo…….ahhhh, I mean honey hole to become overrun with people

    Not sure what the deal with the spot light is??? Checked it out this morning and it just doesn’t work (bulbs not burnt out?) ……It did drip a little bit on us last night, so it could have gotten wet.

    Oh well…..this gives me a reason to upgrade to a 2,000,000 candle power one

    Your photos are 1600 X 1200 pixels. You need to cut them down to 450 MAX in any dimension. I enjoy your pics immensely but I would appreciate it if you could restrict the size a little. Thanks a ton.
