    Default O'Sage can you see... .Oh look, a horse... those greedy girls are keeping their eggs.


    Jeff called me this morning while I was working in the yard, bragging about huge fish, blah blah blah... then hung up on me.

    I got about .65% of my planned work done and I grabbed thenephew that is with us for the weekend and headed east. Launched about 1:30 and headed for aflat. Fished few trees and Nick points outa real nice horse on the shore. Lookedlike it was free ranging it and laid down in the shade of a willow tree.
    Jeff is right, nice fish out there on the flats, but darnwind makes that impossible. We tucked ina cove and two pole slow trolled with three rods between the two of us. Two jigs on each rod, shallow bite, 3-7’down, not really near timber at all.
    Kept 16 nice eaters, missed a bazillion… the bite is as softas a minnow’s tail flutter on a hook.
    Headed back to the same spot in the morning and will tryrigging since Nick wants to take fish to his mothers and limiting out will betomorrow’s goal.

    Most of our catch was female with full egg sacks. One male still in battle dress.

    Thanks for the heads up, Jeff.

    We put up six quarts with a double limit of nice fish.

    Rigging minnows and jigs 4-8' down.

    BFOD and an egg full female. Most of today were still egg full females and we seen one boat pitching the bank and catching crappie... strange for late May.

    Good to see you Gordon. Short visit at the launch and some good info.
    I'll smoke just about anything (in my smoker)
    The fishing is always great. The catching varies.

    Today I'm alone. Caught a limit by early afternoon. Limit all between 12 and 11 inches. Jigs/minnows, minnows, just jigs, 4' to 10', 6' water to 20' water. Blue/char if you had a jig.

    Ran into Jeff and Richard. What a pair.
