Default Shelbyville 8/24

Went out yesterday afternoon and put in at eagle, right away I was in heaven! The Illini Team Trail tournament was going on and the whole entire parking lot, not once space open, was filled with 40+ thousand doller rigs with exception to a few. Every point was filled with a bass fisherman, and seeing them running down the lake about 75mph was a site to see as well. Anyway, I think 16lbs won it. But there were a ton of limits brought in.

Enough of the green carp stuff lol. I caught a bunch of fish. Lots of short fish but I did catch 7 over ten inches and 3 from about 9.25 to 9.95 inches. Got another nice tan, got to see some nice ladies tubin around and caught some fish. Great day on the lake!

cx and bowhunter- I sure wish the freezer was full and I was havin a fish fry lol. But, actually, its quite empty and just yesterday my aunt came by and said she would like about 100 fillets or so! So there it goes down some more lol. I guess its good to be empty before fall hits, because then its on the rise baby

I leave for Canada this weekend actually...will put a thread up before I leave, and when I get back with HOPEFULLY, lots of good pictures.

Take Care!
