Sunday and Monday

[Adam Bomb]

Well, picked the boat up from Augres Marine yesterday and headed out since we were already up there. With the mob over by little charity, but all we pulled were tons of BIG cats and a sheephead and just a couple of walleye in our 3 hour stint up there before heading for home.

So after yesterdays poor outing we moved back closer to home to fish today looking for some redemption. Set up around 9:30 am near the end of the channel. Didnt have all the lines in and we were putting fish in the box. Had a mix of legal and sub legal fish. But as the day wore on the fish size increased and the sub legals seemed to disappear. At 12:45 pm we had our 4 man limit. Tossed some fish back so we could keep fishing and in the next 45 minutes we boated another 9 legal fish. Kept our 20 and headed in. Water was perfect today, bugs werent too bad, heat wasnt scorching, good company...couldnt ask for much more.

Once we got home, we broke out the propane burner and put some fish in the grease. Added some seasoned steak fries and macaroni salad to complete the feast. What a great way to end the day. Ill get some pics up when i get them loaded on the computer. No bikinis like in Dustins post...Sorry.

Great job adam. As you saw with my posts, it was a similar program for us. Once we got it dialed into what they wanted, we made short work of getting a limit. Thankfully not that many shorts for us, and only one sheep.

None the less stay on em..

Tight lines!

Great job Adam! Looks like some nice fish and good eats:D We just couldn't find them, but stay too far north I think yesterday. The bugs I thought were nuts where we were. We never crossed to eastside of channel at all, or got closer than a mile from bouy 2.

Yeah, but you gotta admit they pull the string a hell of alot better than those walleye do. I had a couple that came up along side of the boat like salmon do when they get rambunctious!

Nice job Bomber! I assume you were running spinners behind the CU also? I haven't even broke out the lead this year, and am thinking of putting together some CU for next year. Keep kicking @$$ and taking names:thumb:

[Adam Bomb]

Yep, pulled meat behind everything Jason. Ran a three prong attack with Inlines, 32# Blood Run CU and 3 oz. bottom bouncers. Took fish on everything.

Great post there Adam. Every thing looks fantastic.

[tangled mess]

that fried fish looks almost as good as the grilled fish we had last night.

Nice work on the fish, Adam. The bay gave up a TON of fish over the holiday weekend. I'd say 99% of the boats I talked to had their limit. We were one of the 1% who didn't, we stopped at 17 because the 2 kids we had on board had enough of the heat. What a great fishery we have.
