    Went out Wednesday night for a little “sun” for the girlfriend and a little fishin for me. The girlfriend didn’t really find any sun but I found some fish! It started off kind of slow at first fishing drops and weedlines, only producing a few largies. So I switched up to looking for some smaillies and boy did I find them. They were sitting shallow off of rocks and close to some docks. I started with some cranks and spinner baits and followed up with tubes and stick baits. Every time I would hit a fish or two with the cranks and spinners, I would find a couple more willing to chow down on the tube or sticks. Anyway the night ended with 5 largies with nothing over 2 lbs and 9 smallies with 4 over 3 lbs! And the GF was even a trooper and held out till she didn’t have enought light to read her book anymore!

    Nice Fish, Better Trooper!!!! Not only was she patient with you, but she took the pictures to boot. You may owe her a nice dinner out.
