We fished little bay de noc thursday and friday night. Thursday was the coldest, but the best. Everything on the boat froze, the marine band, the boards, everything. But it was well worth it. Husky jerks being pulled about 20′ behind the boards was the best ticket. We caught a bunch of pigs the first night which were all released. The second night we had some pigs as well as some small eaters.
One thing that made me sick was a guy that was at the hotel was cleaning about eight big fish. Probably fish between 27 all the way to 30 inches. I was so mad, he was fishing in little bay, and we confronted him and told him you could only keep one fish over the 23 mark. He argued and got all huffy and said he has been fishing here for eighteen years, and “there are no rules on big fish”. That is when I wanted to call the dnr. We didn’t but bob lauridsen had the regs in his truck and showed the guy straight. He was all apologetic after that. I just wanted to turn the guy in. Not only was he keeping big fish, but he was “unaware” of the rules after eighteen years of fishing. Can you imagine how many big fish this guy has killed in eighteen years? Sick!! We also had the pleasure of taking along jerry hilgenberg, and he caught two of his biggest ever. A 27 and a 29. I will post this picture when I get over to his house and get the picture.
