Wow. Went today and yesterday, but no luck yesterday. But today, we boated two fish and lost another at boatside after my brother horsed it. I caught one fish, gave me a great fight. Went on powerful 20 foot runs on my tight drag. When we boated it, it weighed in at four and a half pounds. Fish were being caught all over, mostly by bottomfishing shore fishermen. Or maybe just because they didn't leave after catching their limits. It's a zoo out there.

Both fish were released unharmed.

That's weird how your fish fought so hard. Mine was a similar size and it put up next to nothing. What kind of line were you using?

6 pound Stren on a short pole.

He ran around my anchor rope too. He was everywhere, thought he would cross a ton of lines. I had to pump it to get any ground. One hand on the pole with the other reeling almost took it out of my hands.

No gas. You can leave it in the water but just don't run it. Use an electric Minn Kota.

No. Very slow. I went out there all day on Sunday with one bite. The fish have spread out and are getting smarter. I watched on shore and the number of people without fish far outnumbered the ones with fish. Down at the other end of the lake, some big ones and some fish with spawning colors were caught. I don't know why, maybe the fall mimics spring spawning weather.
