Looks like you had some nice brookies too. Thanks for the report.

4/26/2013 10:59:00 AMthe penny lure was store bought, and with fake pennies. they were "double tailed". so don t sent the fed's quite yet. best part of the trip was when releasing my partners fish then my 2 pounder while going by another boat, the guy in the other boat says,"now you're just showing off". looked for one of those beer bottle cap lures to try too, but it was in my brother's boat.

5/5/2013 10:06:00 PMI grew up on South Twin Lake, It was even better before some southern hillbillie threw in the bass. When the shiners where there, it was a world class trout lake, 12lb rainbows where not unusual, and 5lb plus brooks were caught regularly. Need to take a trip over there again soon!!!
