John and I were on the water before sunrise and hit the local shallow water spot.

I took the skunk off 1st with a solid 15incher!

He then followed suit ...

...just before my jerkbait got tugged on hard. He peeled some line and then...see you later. Gone. Just a memory now. Must keep fishing.

We decided to move upriver...way up river!

It was a good decision as we caught at least a dozen fish up there!

We then motored down river to cool off and fish some familiar waters. We each scored a few including the biggest of the day at 16.5"!

This guy paid us a visit when we came back to the ramp!

It got really hot out after lunch...we were off the water shortly after 1:30p.

John took honors with 11 fish, I had 9 which included the long ear.

We did miss more than a few....but we caught fish at every place we stopped. Great day out!

BTW, white was working well today....


Time to go fishin' again!

It's actually a bit big for perch, wide gap hook on an 1/8oz shallow water striper jig made by the other George, from Specialized Baits.

A bad day of fishing always trumps a good day at work
