I ran out south of town to get some stuff for my Suzuki, thinking "Dang, this is going to be rough getting out at tonight's gathering" - when the semi ahead of me took on a very nice list to the right. I thought the wind gust was going to tip it over. Then, when I was picking up my stuff - I noticed a pontoon sitting outside of the business shaking pretty violently.

At that point I said "Have fun guys - I'm staying home and making Peter mow the lawn..."

I would like to attend this event though, so I'll keep my dance card open for next week... Just let me know...

That looks like 4 good words to me! Mike, u should have called in sick!

Landing side was well protected and fishing was not all that bad. We did muster a few fish, even though boat control was a big issue trying to stay on top of the pockets of fish. Matt did his best so I could put the Vex on them! Unfortunatly, we couldn't get to where I had located schools of bigger fish over the last week.

Thanks for the boat ride Matt, Sorry, I will never bring a bxxx in your boat again, now that I know your rule. Definiatly gotta do it again.

Next week doessn't work for me Mike, will catch up with everyone at a later date.

All in all, it wasn't terrible. Fish did bite. Boat control was the biggest issue. Staying vertical was pretty much non-existent.

The whole slue was caught, sheephead, ba**, crappies, sunnies, walleye, and perch.

Key areas were 14-23 FOW. Plastics by far out preformed the live bait, and stay vertical when you find the schools! And boat control!

There were at one point 7 boats out, by the time we left, only 2 others out there.

Buoy's in the narrows were being sunk by waves. I have dinner for my family tonight!

I can't make it to the lake till ~5pm but anyone else can feel free to go out in the morning and corner some fish for me! I'm thinking Tuesday or Wednesday now. I'm leaving for a vacation on Gull that Friday and Thursday is just to late in the week. Judging by the forcast as of now Wednesday would be better but who knows that far out.
