Managed to get out on Gull last friday am. Buddy from high school called me and said he had a cpl seats open in the boat and would I like to go. Could not pass up a chance to fish with this person. We launched at 7am and by 9 am had boated 23 eyes. My daughter had one in the boat before buddy and I even had our redtails in the water. He was marking a ton of fish, so I dropped the aqua view down and was like looking in an aquarium. Not one or eyes..but 4-6 at a pop running around. Some huge sunnies and nice crappies too, but mostly eyes. By 9 the bite had slowed so we commenced to go catch several LM bass on miscelaneous points and islands. Leech bite was not there, nor was crawler, but we went thru 5 dozen retails. Kiddo broke off about a 6lb wally at boat, kept a limit of 14-16 (ones we couldnt catch on mille lacs earlier in week) and rest of fish were shorts. Had fun, 14 foot was magic depth.
